McGill is eager to welcome you back to campus as soon as it’s safe to do so. In preparation, we have news on exciting campus projects, insight on some of its brightest scholars, and updates on the 200 for 200 Legacy Challenge.
Welcome back, McGill
Autumn in Montreal has Emeritus professor Dr. Stephen Allan Scott reflecting on McGill, its Bicentennial, and its beloved campus. “I myself have been separated from my favourite spots. Rest assured that the University is eager to welcome you back.”
Fiat Lux: Let there be light
The heart of McGill’s downtown campus – the Library – is being reimagined for 21st century students, faculty and researchers. It’s the first major library project since the McLennan Library Building opened in 1969.
A Made by McGill M.D.
Dr. Olivia Ganescu is on medicine’s frontlines, training as a General Surgery Resident at the McGill University Health Centre. But before that she was a McGill student, earning multiple scholarships and awards. “I don’t know how to emphasize how much it meant, and what it allowed me do.”
Did you know? The 200 for 200 Legacy Challenge
It’s been nearly a year since the launch of the 200 for 200 Legacy Challenge, and McGill is over halfway to its goal. Here’s a statistical breakdown on who is joining, what they’re donating, and how you can be counted among them.
A trip down memory lane
What do you most look forward to when you return to McGill? What advice would you share with students who are arriving on campus for the first time? We asked a trio of legacy donors to share their thoughts, and their answers might surprise you.
Back to school with the Student Emergency Support Fund
When COVID-19 hit campus, students in distress received help thanks to the McGill Student Emergency Support Fund. Although the hope is that the worst of the pandemic has passed, the Fund is here to stay, thanks to the University and its donors.
Honouring our generous benefactors
Choosing to leave a legacy gift to McGill is a deeply personal act of generosity, and we want to thank each and every person who does so during their lifetime. Listed here are bequests received by the University over the past year.
What will your legacy be?
