Events
Celebration dinner
At the School of Leadership Studies, we know how important it is to celebrate the successes of all of our students. Our annual celebration dinner is an opportunity to invite your family and friends, get dressed up and to feel proud of all that you have accomplished during the past year.
With a catered three-course meal, live musical entertainment and an engaging keynote address, this event is one that we look forward to each year.
Camping trip
Prior to UNB’s campus-wide orientation events, first-year students take part in a three-day camping trip where you will get to know your School of Leadership Studies classmates, professors and staff.
This camping trip helps to foster the close-knit family of learners that make up the School of Leadership Studies.
What better way to get to know your classmates than by sharing a tent, preparing meals together and participating in a service project.
Common meals
Each semester, the School of Leadership Studies hosts at least one common meal. These events range from potlucks to themed meals with invited guests to pizza parties.
Our common meals provide an opportunity for all members of the School of Leadership Studies community to gather, enjoy a good meal and have thought-provoking conversation surrounding a theme.
Soup’s on
Once a week, our students, professors and staff can be found gathered around a table enjoying a bowl of homemade soup.
Cross-cohort groups have come together to prepare soup for 70-80 people each week.
As a student, you will be required to find two recipes, shop for the ingredients on a tight budget and prepare the soup before class begins.
This long-standing tradition helps to foster a strong sense of community at the School of Leadership Studies and will help you to:
- gain valuable skills in the kitchen
- learn to budget
- work as a team
- be held accountable to your peers
You also get a healthy, homemade meal.
Dean’s List Tea
School of Leadership Studies students who excel academically and make the Dean’s List (GPA of 3.7 and above), are invited to our annual Dean’s List Tea.
At the tea you will get to celebrate your academic success while enjoying traditional English tea with milk, a sugar cube or a lemon wedge, as well as dainty sandwiches and a variety of pastries and squares.
Coffee house
Each semester, the School of Leadership Studies Society hosts a Coffee House.
This event is open to anyone in the UNB community and offers you an opportunity to take a break from studying to showcase your skills and talents, meet new people and enjoy a hot drink.
