$16 785 For projects réalizations in the 4 campus of the Cégep de la Gaspésie et des Îles
Responding to a call for projects launched in the spring by the Cornélius-Brotherton Foundation, members of the staff of the Cégep de la Gaspésie et des Îles innovated through the quality, variety and dynamism of the projects proposed.
In view of the pandemic, trips and internships abroad were not authorized for CEGEP students and staff. Despite everything, ten projects were thus submitted under the 3 components
of the financial support program:
• innovation in study programs,
• improvement of student life on campus,
• student mobility in the province
The areas of intervention of the proposals submitted to the analysis committee were diversified. These initiatives targeted objectives as varied as the outdoors, aquarism, student anxiety, forestry, experimentation with vegetable crops, badminton and inter-campus or provincial exchanges. Following the recommendations from the analysis committee, the Foundation decided to contribute financially to the realization of the ten projects submitted for a total amount of $ 16,785.
