The summer season has been here for some time, but we at WUSC at Trent University would like to wish everyone a wonderful summer! Some of you may be attending summer classes, working or abroad. Wherever you are, we hope you are doing well, keeping safe and at the same time having a bit of fun, especially if you are taking a break from classes. WUSC at Trent University looks forward to your return and participation in the Fall semester of 2008!
