Georgian solidifi ed my passion for social change and community development. My
anti-bullying program with Camp Couchiching – through Georgian's Centre for Social
Entrepreneurship – gained me an Orillia Chamber of Commerce Award and I still enjoy
working at the camp part-time.
Thanks to an articulation agreement between Georgian and Lakehead University, I
advanced to the second year of the Bachelor of Social Work. My diploma gave me a
good base of information and experience, and my degree will deepen and strengthen
my knowledge and skills – I'm getting the best of both worlds!
