The Canisius College Pre-Medical Center partnered with the Erie Niagara Health Education Center to host a week-long Health Professions Summer Camp for middle school children. This is an effort to encourage Buffalo kids to persist in science and math during high school and beyond. Canisius faculty and several alumni in health professions helped introduce the kids to what it would be like to work as a physician assistant or in the fields of pharmacy, dentistry, neuroscience, animal behavior and more.

The Buffalo News editorial board gave kudos to The Movement to Restore Trust in its August 5 edition, crediting the group of local Catholic laity for its recently issued report of proposed reforms.
Canisius President John J. Hurley, who was instrumental in forming The Movement to Restore Trust, is referenced throughout the article talking about the importance of laity, religious and clergy working together to promote best practices in the management of the Catholic Church.
As a new academic year gets underway in a few weeks, so too will the college’s year-long celebration commemorating its Sesquicentennial. Already, the campus is showing signs – literally – of what the Canisius community can expect to see throughout the year.
Thanks to the talented work of the Marketing & Brand Engagement team, new Sesqui-themed banners and graphics now adorn campus buildings and areas up-and-down Main Street. Look for more to come on light posts across campus and inside Science Hall, in the coming days.
Members of the college community turned out on Monday, August 5 for the first of two campus beautification days, hosted by Canisius President John J. Hurley and the Human Resources Department.
Participants helped weed various flower beds in and around college buildings in preparation for the return of students in a few weeks.
Pictured below are Sarah E. Signorino, director of mission and identity; Laura A. Montaro, executive associate to the president; and John J. Hurley, president of Canisius College.
A second campus beautification day is scheduled for Tuesday, August 13 from 2:30 – 4:30 p.m. and all are invited to participate. Gardening gloves will be provided. Click here RSVP.
Please note that manager approval is required to participate in this project.
