Changing on the Fly: Hockey through the voices of South Asian Canadians |
November 23 | 4:30 - 6:30 pm ET
Discussant: Dr. Kristi Allain, Associate Professor of Sociology, Trent University
Bio: Kristi is a Canada Research Chair in Physical Culture and Social Life and an Associate Professor of sociology at St. Thomas University.

Her work examined this celebration/marginalization dichotomy within Canadian hockey institutions.

Author: Dr. Courtney Szto, Assistant Professor, School of Kinesiology and Health Studies, Queen's University

El Zahraa Majed, SKHS (2nd yr. PhD) wins 1st place in the CRDCN 3-Minute Thesis Competition |
Three Minute Thesis (3MT®) is a research communication competition developed by The University of Queensland (UQ). Graduate students have three minutes to present a compelling oration on their thesis and its significance. 3MT challenges students to consolidate their ideas and research discoveries so they can be presented concisely to a non-specialist audience.
El Zahraa is passionate about physical activity and how it can promote healthier lifestyles for vulnerable and ethnic minority communities.
