St. Lawrence College Testing Services provide tri-campus support for most disability-related assessment needs. The long-awaited new Integrated Test Centre, Kingston Campus is now open. This state-of-the-art assessment centre utilizes innovative space and technology to create a distraction reduced environment for assessment, while ensuring academic integrity and delivery of high-quality invigilation services.

St. Lawrence College has officially opened the Brockville Campus Health Centre and Cornwall Campus Health Centre, with services available to both students and employees. Our new clinic in Brockville is in Room 250A, and in Cornwall in Room A111.

Dr. John Conrad, Director, Innovation and Business Engagement, writes about three types of perspectives when it comes to Innovation: the puzzle makers; the puzzle watchers; and the puzzle breakers. Over the last number of years outside our office we have had our purple table with a puzzle on it for bystanders to work on in their free time. Now that we are back on campus the puzzle table has been busy, and I was reminded that people respond differently to seeing the puzzle.

Earlier in September, the annual Ontario East Municipal Conference (OEMC) was held in Cornwall at the DEV Hotel and Conference Centre. As part of the conference’s Workforce Development stream, Richard Webster, SLC’s International Education Manager of Community Development presented on the College’s Global Engagement Community Development (GECD) Program, its timely significance and the shared opportunity created for students, alumni, community, and employers by supporting and hiring international students and grads in the region.

For the past 15 years, SLC students in the Police Foundations program (PFP) have shown support for participants in the National Peace Officers' Memorial Run, an annual run that starts in Queen’s Park in Toronto and ends at the National Memorial for Fallen Peace Officers in Ottawa. As they’ve done in years past, SLC PFP students greeted runners as they entered Kingston and ran alongside them as they made their way through the city on Friday, September 23.
