Decades worth of dedication and service to her community were recognized for Rosalie Flynn when she was recognized with the Saskatchewan Parks and Recreation Association Volunteer of the Year Award.
“It’s just one word, overwhelmed I guess. It’s always an honour to be recognized by your peers and to be recognized by the City for the things that I like to do is truly an honour,” said Flynn.
Flynn retired from teaching 10 years ago, but has remained active in the community in a number of different capacities, including the 2016 World Women’s Curling Championship as a co-chair of the Lounge Committee and the 2019 Western Canada Summer Games as a co-chair of the Uniform Distribution and Accreditation Centre.

Govt. may usher in reforms before Assembly elections
The higher education sector is likely to become a key beneficiary of the upcoming State Budget. Besides earmarking a significant portion of allocation for infrastructure development, the government has set its sights on ushering in reforms before heading for the Assembly elections.
The Left Democratic Front (LDF) government had succeeded in realising some of its ambitious goals such as setting up the State Assessment and Accreditation Centre (SAAC) and the Sree Narayana Guru Open University, both of which have been in the pipeline for long.

Around 20 colleges have expressed willingness to undergo assessment
The State Assessment and Accreditation Centre (SAAC) is gearing up to conduct peer team visits to higher education institutions in Kerala for the first cycle of accreditation.
After being initially cold-shouldered by a section of the academic community, around 20 colleges, including arts and science, engineering, teacher training, and nursing colleges, have expressed willingness to undergo assessment. Considering the government’s intention to make SAAC accreditation a criterion for new courses and affiliation, many other colleges are expected to follow suit.
