On behalf of the UPEI Student Union we are pleased to present to you the Inspiring Alumni Speakers’ Series! The Student Union is extremely proud of the achievements of all UPEI alumni, and we want to offer current UPEI Students, and the entire Island community, the opportunity to hear about the amazing things they are doing. This year, we have the honour of presenting a noted humanitarian and nurse, a veterinarian working in the “happiest place on earth”; and a Rhodes Scholar and Chief Health Officer – three people more than worthy of the distinction “inspiring alumni.”

Governor General Michaëlle Jean presented UPEI President Wade MacLauchlan with an insignia of membership in the Order of Canada at a ceremony in Rideau Hall on November 5. The Order of Canada recognizes Canadians for outstanding lifetime achievements.
