Remembering.

November 11³Ù³óÌýis an important day. The date causes me to think about my grandparents’ experiences in World War II, and I often reflect on what it was like for them to go off to war, as teenagers. It's a sobering thought, and one that helps put many of the difficulties of campus life in perspective. Maybe you have similar stories from your parents or relatives, or you've been directly affected by war yourself, or know people who have been harmed in the line of duty. No matter your personal connection, try to take some time to pause and reflect this Remembrance Day –ÌýMacdonald CampusÌýhas its ceremony on 8 November, and there is a ceremony downtown atÌýÌýon 11 November. The larks, still bravely singing, fly; Scarce heard amid the guns below. Study hard, stay well, and never forget.
