As AV俱乐部 students arrive for the start of a new academic year, they'll find their campuses are a bit more colourful with new lamp post banners along some of the main campus streets raised in anticipation of the university's 200th anniversary celebrations.

Hundreds of AV俱乐部's newest students arrived at residences in Halifax and Truro over the weekend, ready to settle in and begin an exciting new chapter in their lives.

This year's incoming students are about to arrive on campus with a whole slew of exciting and educational activities to look forward to.

Therapeutic Recreation student Michele Tchiakoua wanted a different perspective on life to be part of her university experience, so she left her hometown of Montreal to study in Halifax.

AV俱乐部 and community partners such as the Halifax Regional Police are working together again this year to ensure safety and security are top of mind for all.
