Winter solstice: brighter days are ahead

University of Waterloo President Vivek Goel reflects on the Winter Solstice and gives thanks to the Waterloo community for sharing their perspectives and knowledge that together make our community stronger.

Thank you to Savanah Seaton and members of the Waterloo Indigenous Student Centre (WISC) at United College for taking the time to share the significance of the Winter Solstice for certain Indigenous cultures.

President Goel says:"however you spend the winter break, I hope you are able to connect with the people, places and traditions you hold dear, and that you take the time to rest and rejuvenate. Wishing you a happy, safe and restful break. And we’ll see you again when the days get brighter."
