The Humanities Games

«The Humanities Games consist of a friendly competition open to all students enrolled in the Humanities or a related program. Teams of 4 to 6 people will compete for victory through different intellectual events.» https://www.cmontmorency.qc.ca/etudiants/vie-etudiante/decouverte/jeux-des-sciences-humaines/

In March 2023, I had the opportunity to be the representative of Collégial International Sainte-Anne at the Humanities Games at Montmorency College. This event was a two-day competition where students from many cegeps would compete in small teams in many intellectual challenges. The goal was to win the title of the best Humanities delegation.

During the competition, we faced many different challenges with various subjects such as philosophy, psychology, economics, history, politics and more. This event was extremely mentally stimulating. It allowed me to consolidate previous lessons and learn a lot more information on a variety of these interesting topics.

In conclusion, this competition was an incredible experience! In fact, I had the opportunity to meet dozens of students who shared similar interest in the Human Sciences and had the chance to acquire more knowledge in an interactive way.

See you next year in 2024!

SimONU - CONMUN

The Concordia Model United Nations Conference (CONMUN), is a subsidiary of the Concordia Global Affairs Association, and is an annual conference for college students between the ages of 17-25 who are interested in international relations, debate, and diplomacy. - https://www.conmun.org/en/about-conmun

Attending the Concordia Model United Nations 2023 conference was a stressful and nerve-wracking experience at first, as it was the first time I had ever done any kind of Model United Nations simulation.

However, during the four days of the conference, I found that I really enjoyed the experience. I developed strong relationships with the other students and learned a lot about international relations and public speaking.

During the conference, I was given the opportunity to represent the Thai delegation and learned about their stance on minority protection. As a result of my participation in this four-day event, I have improved my skills in debate, diplomacy, and English.

I am looking forward to participating in many more conferences like this one!

McGill Campus Tour

I recently had the opportunity of exploring the campus of the University of McGill, taking particular attention to the Faculty of Law. My colleagues and I were warmly welcomed by the university students who showed us around the campus.

At our first destination, Camille, a student, presented intriguing facts with everyone about the university's history. Camille explained the different faculties and programs, as well as the various clubs and activities available to students.

Afterwards, headed to the Faculty of Law, where we met with a student named Mathieu. He gave us a tour of the law faculty and provided us with some insight into what it's like to be a McGill law student. Additionally, Mathieu responded to our inquiries regarding the admissions procedure and requirements for being a successful law student.

We were then introduced to a few members of the admissions team, who provided us with valuable insights about what they look for in potential students. They also answered our questions about the application process, requirements, and deadlines.

The tour was an incredibly informative and eye-opening experience for me. I gained a better understanding of the academic path I want to take and the steps I need to take to achieve my goals. I was also impressed by the supportive and collaborative environment of the campus, and I am eager to become a part of it.
