How do you typically learn about things going on in the Laurier community? Are there technologies that would make your life easier as a student? We want to hear from you!

After gaining your incredible insights into communication preferences from the Winter 2024 Student Communications Survey, Student Affairs Communications and ICT have teamed up to lead Student Communications and Technology Focus Groups, being hosted by two fellow students, later this month.

These peer-led focus groups are intended to gather your genuine feedback on how the university communicates with students and the tech resources available on campus. This is your chance to give honest feedback, share your ideas confidentially, and shape the student experience here at Laurier.
