On Thursday November 7, 2019, we came together for the second annual reception honoring Professor Phil Distin’s memory. This year, students were actively involved in organizing the event as Phil would have liked to see. Students, staff, alumni and friends had the opportunity to share food bites-including oysters, have a drink or two all while Phil’s favorite piano music played.
We would like to express a huge thank-you to those who attended our F2019 UG scholarship awards and Co-op Employer Appreciation event on October 8, 2019 at McGill.
Pictured here: Student scholarship recipients as well as representatives from some of our co-op industry partners at 5N Plus, BBA, Bombardier, Camfil Power Systems, Canadian Royalties, DRAGlobal (Met-Chem), Ivaco, NRC-CNRC, Sivaco
The event typically takes place in September or October annually. For more information, please contact: Genevieve.snider [at] mcgill.ca
