On Tuesday, September 2 and Wednesday, September 3, the Office of Enrollment Management will be conducting Canisius College Training. All members of the campus community are welcome to attend the sessions in the Montante Cultural Center. Presentations will begin promptly at 8:30 a.m. daily, are 30 minutes in length and will be back to back the entire day ending at 5:00 p.m. We ask attendees to be respectful of speakers as they enter and exit the presentations.
The purpose of the event is to provide a comprehensive training on Canisius College through brief presentations of academic and non-academic program offerings at the institution. This will assist community members representing the college in student recruitment, athletic recruitment, institutional advancement and provide general campus knowledge.

The Jesuit ideal of cura personalis was palpable on Thursday, August 21 at the college’s Student Services Fair.
Representatives from just about all the campus offices were on hand to answer any questions from incoming resident students and their parents.
Rev. Michael F. Tunney, S.J., director of mission and identity, captured the excitement and emotion of the day in the following video, which he produced, assisted by Nathan Johnson, instructional media assistant in the Media Center.
Take a look!
