Currently, I lead sponsorship and advertising programming at the Dalhousie Student Union, and I am responsible for generating in-kind and paid partnerships for year-round events and orientations that enhance student experience. There are tons of student societies and groups to engage with on campus. The Dalhousie Student Life and Student Union hold a Society and Volunteer Expo in both fall and winter terms. It\u2019s is a great place to find out about ways to get involved on campus.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What do you think of your professors?<\/strong><br \/>Overall, I have found it easy to <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/download-scripts-themes-apps\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"9\" title=\"Download Scripts &amp; Themes &amp; Apps\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">app<\/a>roach professors. Their response time might vary based on the class size, but they have answered all my queries and offered relevant resources and guidance.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What do you think of the school\u2019s administration?<\/strong><br \/>The administration processes are quite smooth. Dalhousie\u2019s admissions team works with the respective faculties and the registrar\u2019s office to communicate with students, and the school\u2019s online portal makes it easy to track your application, pay semester fees and register for classes. The registration process opens a few months before classes start and is first come, first served. The admin staff and program coordinators are very responsive when it comes to helping students.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What is off-campus life like in Halifax?<\/strong><br \/>Halifax has a lot to offer. Down in the waterfront area, check out the Art Gallery of Nova Scotia, the Discovery Centre and the Maritime Museum of the Atlantic, along with plenty of caf\u00e9s and restaurants. For nightlife and theatre, head to Argyle Street downtown.<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><strong>PROFILE<\/strong>: <strong>Dalhousie University | Halifax, N.S. | Founded 1818<\/strong><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><strong>If I wrote the school motto:<\/strong> Our historical motto is \u2018Pray and work\u2019 (\u2018Ora et labora\u2019); an extension would be \u2018Pray, work and enjoy the process!\u2019<br \/><strong>Best place to live:<\/strong> North End Halifax<br \/><strong>Best place to study:<\/strong> Halifax Central Library on Spring Garden Road and Killam Memorial Library on Dalhousie\u2019s Studley campus<br \/><strong>Best campus events:<\/strong> Together@Dal and Dal After Dark<br \/><strong>Best campus food:<\/strong> The Grawood<br \/><strong>Best cheap lunch:<\/strong> Jean\u2019s Chinese Restaurant<br \/><strong>Best pizza:<\/strong> La Piazza Resto Caf\u00e9<br \/><strong>Best place for a fancy dinner:<\/strong> The Bicycle Thief<br \/><strong>Best giveaway:<\/strong> The university has a winter clothes giveaway each year, and the Loaded Ladle provides accessible, sustainable, locally sourced free food on campus throughout the week<br \/><strong>Best bar for hanging out:<\/strong> The university has a winter clothes giveaway each year, and the Loaded Ladle provides accessible, sustainable, locally sourced free food on campus throughout the week<br \/><strong>Best live music venue:<\/strong> Halifax Alehouse<br \/><strong>Best hangover breakfast: <\/strong>Ardmore Tea Room on Quinpool Road<br \/><strong>Best place for a nap:<\/strong> Killam Memorial Library<br \/><strong>Best weekend activity:<\/strong> Visiting Citadel Hill at night<br \/><strong>The thing that surprised me most about the school:<\/strong> That school campuses are spread across downtown Halifax.<\/p>\n<div class=\"under-article-widget-nl\">\n<p class=\"under-article-widget-title\">Looking for more?<\/p>\n<p class=\"under-article-widget-description\">Get the best of <em>Maclean&#8217;s<\/em> straight to your inbox.
