OPPORTUNITIES

Macdonald Student Ecological Gardens (MSEG) Volunteers
Macdonald Student Ecological Gardens (MSEG) are looking for three new crew members for their 2018 season! MSEG is located on Mac Campus on about 3 acres of land. Since 2009, students have been growing over 50 different types of vegetables at MSEG and developing production each year with organic practices. MSEG now functions as a fully independent market garden, selling at three farmers markets, providing 75 CSA baskets and patterning with restaurants. If you are at all interested in sustainable agriculture, apply! For more information, check out our hiring website.


Field Notes CoEditors
The McGill Undergraduate Geography Journal Field Notes is looking for students to help our editors in chief! If you are interested please email mcgillgeography@gmail.com
with a quick blurb about who you are and your relevant experience. We look forward to hearing from you :)


Intramural Hockey 
It's that time of year again, and the McGill Geography Intramural hockey team is recruiting for the Winter 2018 Hockey season. All skill levels are welcome to play-even if you've never put on a pair of skates! You must have all of your own gear. Contact charles.solberg@mail.mcgill.ca for more information.


EVENTS

Painting with Bob Ross Pt II
Thursday November 30th
Our last Bob Ross event was such a roaring success that we're doing it again. Our holiday gift to you!!! Come paint some happy little holiday trees with us. Bob Ross once said that the secret to doing anything is believing that you can do it. Come test that theory and paint with us in the MUGS Lounge (floor 3 Burnside) on Thursday the 30th! Free painting equipment, hot chocolate, and snacks will be provided.

Recipe Swap

Looking for easy and healthy recipes to keep your brain fueled during study season? Have a go-to recipe that you would like to share? McGill's first ever Recipe Swap has got you covered! Bring your grandma's cookbook, or a link to your favourite blog or cooking app and come chat tried and true tricks for meal planning and prep with Healthy McGill and SNAC. Snacks and tea will be provided! Burnside Hall, 308. Be there be square.

Vision 2020: Climate and Sustainability Action Plan Party 
December 1st, 4-6pm
Faculty Club 

After months of consultations with more than 500 community members, McGill's  Climate & Sustainability Action Plan is set to be released this December. In addition to addressing the University's most pressing sustainability challenges, this is the first Plan specifically aimed at reducing McGill's carbon footprint. 
To celebrate, the Mcgill Office of Sustainability is throwing a party- come enjoy inspired conversations and refreshments with the students, faculty and staff who are helping blaze new trails.

Geographer of the Week 
Rudolphe D'Arcy Quinn (aka Rudy) hails from Switzerland but his parents are from Tennessee. He loves transportation networks, long walks on the beach, and puzzles-- he once completed a 1000 piece jigsaw in a single sitting! He's a fan of wine from Bordeaux but will never turn down a good Prosecco. He's the best. If you see him in the GIC, talk to him about music! 



Geographer of the week is a new feature of the listserv. If you know a geographer who deserves a spotlight, nominate them by sending an email with their name and bio to mcgillgeography@gmail.com
