Congratulations to our own MSc student James Nesbitt for receiving the Young Minds Award for best oral presentation by the International Society for Horticultural Science. James received this award for his presentation given at the 31st International Horticultural Congress in France. The selection fo the winner of the Young Minds Award is based on several criteria, from orginality and scientific merit of the presented research to how well presented the talk was. 

It's with deep sadness that we share the passing of one of our undergraduate students, Luke MacDonald. Luke would have entered his third year in environmental sciences this fall. He was also a proud member of the University of Guelph Gryphon Rugby team. 

A celebration of life will take place in Toronto on Thursday, Aug. 18. Campus flags will be lowered to half-mast on that day in Luke’s honour.
