It matters that you’re here. 💙💛

The UWindsor campus community came together this week for the annual It Matters That You’re Here Walk of Hope & Healing and flag raising - a meaningful reminder that everyone deserves support, connection and hope.

Thank you to everyone who joined us and helped create a space to reflect, remember and remind one another that no one has to navigate difficult moments alone. 💙

If you or someone you know is looking for support, free and confidential mental health resources are available to UWindsor students and employees.

Looking back at a great night under the lights from this past weekend. 💙💛

Alumni Week brought Lancers together for an evening of football, school spirit and familiar faces as Lancer Football took on the York Lions, coming away with a 51–2 win! 🏈

It was a great evening to reconnect, cheer on the Lancers and celebrate the Lancer community.

Here are a few moments from the evening!

POV: your mom’s 2005 grad dress becomes your 2026 full-circle moment. 👗🎓💛

Twenty-one years ago, Nadine Manroe-Wakerell (BA, Hons ’05) crossed the University of Windsor convocation stage as a young mother.

This spring, her daughter, Gabrielle (BSc ’26), followed in her footsteps and graduated as a Lancer, with her mom, Nadine, there to greet her as a member of the UWindsor Board of Governors.

But that wasn’t the only full-circle moment. Gabrielle was wearing the very same dress her mom wore to her graduation 21 years earlier. 🥹

Different generation. Same dress. Same Lancer pride.

Then. Now. Always a Lancer. 💙💛
