Thursday, March 10 saw a rare and unusual spectacle at UFV’s student-run restaurant, Casey’s on Campus: a wildly successful student event. Put on by members of Geography 460, the event was an information gathering session for the future UFV-centered area of Abbotsford – or “U District,” – for which planning is currently underway.
The class, a practicum and planning course that meets on Saturdays, is led by professor Cherie Enns, who has also been involved in the university’s global development efforts. A small and dedicated group of students in the class, which includes Scott Varga, Kristin Galcso, Chris Ovens, Milan Francisty, Angeline Mushumanski, Jessica Kugler, were responsible for organizing the event, which registered over 300 attendees – no small feat on a typically disengaged campus.
