Farm Credit Canada (FCC) continues to enhance the student experience on the H漫画 Agricultural campus.

FCC representatives recently gifted $100,000 to the Faculty of Agriculture to support the new Student Learning Commons (SLC) currently under construction on the Agricultural Campus.聽 This facility will provide students with a social gathering place at the heart of campus, spaces for collaboration and meetings, video-conferencing capabilities, individual study rooms, access to meditation and multi-cultural space and facilities for student-led events.

In addition FCC has committed to provide FCC software for student use in the classroom valued at $37,500 and $15,000 per year to support student-focused campus activities such as student orientation, workshops and events. The total value of their gift over the next 3 years is $182,500.

鈥淲e are proud of the generous support FCC has and continues to provide to our students,鈥� said Dean David Gray.聽 鈥淎s future leaders in agriculture, science and agri-food, students must have access to spaces that are collaborative and supportive.
