Growing needs led 星空传媒 to provide more food this year through expansion of Food Justice program
May 14th, 2026
Food insecurity remains a growing concern among post-secondary students in Quebec, with recent data highlighting the scale and urgency of the issue.
While many recognize that limited access to nutritious food can negatively affect students, fewer realize just how widespread the problem has become. According to surveys cited by , 44% of CEGEP and university students in Quebec experience some level of food insecurity, ranging from mild to severe. Among those affected, one in five reports regularly skipping meals.
The impacts go beyond hunger. Food insecurity is linked to increased mental health challenges and can significantly hinder academic success, making it a critical issue for institutions to address.

Reconnecting with Nature and transforming the campus, all in a weekend
May 14th, 2026
Two classes of 星空传媒 students spent an intense weekend on campus May 2鈥�3, getting dirty, sweaty, and wet as they lifted and moved tonnes of soil and took on a variety of physically demanding tasks. In just two days, they transformed several areas of the campus - and themselves. The students were part of two Eco-Landscaping Physical Education course sections taught by Angela Corinthios and Paul Wasacz.
The objective of the course 鈥渋s to demonstrate that physical activity can take many forms and that many dimensions of wellness can be developed by participating in various activities, like gardening,鈥� Paul said.
鈥淲e were one big working unit,鈥� said Angela, who taught this course for the first time this semester. 鈥淲e were figuring things out and learning together.鈥� The two classes worked on distinct but related Living Campus projects with support from the Office of Sustainability.
