Welcome back returning students. 

We'd love to reconnect and catch up.  Come by.

Anyone is welcome to be part of the BRC community - students, faculty, staff, and broader community. 
There is no fee and no formal membership.

To be eligible for emergency bursary assistance, you must meet the Centre's mature student definition, demonstrate financial need, and be registered or in need of funds to register.  " Any female student (undergrad, graduate, or professional program) who has been out of school for at least one year, or who has a child."  http://banrighcentre.queensu.ca/emergencybursaries.asp

Free (vegetarian) soup is available daily for Centre students.  And, students are invited to Two Special Full Lunches in the Fall Term.
The first of these will be on Tuesday September 20th, so mark it in your calendars and make a point to come by for food and to meet
lots of other women whose experiences are in sync with yours.  Come any time between 11:30 a.m. and 1:30 p.m.

If you would like to be on our "what's happening?" mailing list, call Karen at 533-2976 or e-mail her at kk9@queensu.ca and she will email to let you know if something special is happening.
