May 1, 2013 when Aramark Higher Education officially joins the U of L community.<br> <br> Marking the most transformative food services change at the U of L in 30 years, the introduction of Aramark as the new food provider is the culmination of a comprehensive and consultative review of food services on the Lethbridge campus.<br> <br> "The Ãâ·Ñ¸£Àû×ÊÔ´ÔÚÏß¿´Æ¬ of Lethbridge prides itself on the experience it offers its students," says U of L President Dr. Mike Mahon. "We recognize that food quality is critical to that experience, and we are thrilled that our campus community will be provided with a variety of high-quality food options for the foreseeable future."<br> <br> A number of renovations are planned over the summer to accommodate the significant changes that Aramark will bring to campus, all focused on taking the campus dining experience for students, faculty and staff to a new level.<br> <br> "We are excited to begin serving the Ãâ·Ñ¸£Àû×ÊÔ´ÔÚÏß¿´Æ¬ community," says Jeff Marcellus of Aramark as his company begins a 10-year agreement with the Ãâ·Ñ¸£Àû×ÊÔ´ÔÚÏß¿´Æ¬. "Our goal is to enhance the dining environment and experience for students, faculty and staff, and to build partnerships across the campus community."<br> <br> Tim Hortons will be the first location to open under Aramark's leadership on May 1 in the 1st Choice Savings Centre for Sport and Wellness. This will continue to be a full Tim Hortons that will offer everything from classic hot beverages and donuts to sandwiches and chili.<br> <br> A fully renovated dining hall, a convenience food outlet, a full Starbucks, Subway and an Express Tim Hortons will open at other campus locations in the fall.<br> <br> The change to the current Ãâ·Ñ¸£Àû×ÊÔ´ÔÚÏß¿´Æ¬ Hall dining hall will be significant as Aramark transforms the space into the Urban Market, serving breakfast, lunch and dinner. Renovations include the installation of a flat top grill, pizza oven, entr&eacute;e station, deli and a build-your-own salad bar, soup and coffee station. An artist's concept drawing is attached for reference.<br> <br> Further down Ãâ·Ñ¸£Àû×ÊÔ´ÔÚÏß¿´Æ¬ Hall, a Subway, connected to another Tim Hortons will be introduced. This Tim Hortons will be an express location, offering hot beverages and bakery items.<br> <br> In Markin Hall, a convenient food outlet that will offer an assortment of grab 'n' go items including "We Proudly Serve Starbucks" coffee, bakery, soup, snacks and cold beverages, will remain. The Express menu will also include items such as sandwiches, salads, snackers, fruit and veggie cups and yogurt parfait cups.<br> <br> The final addition to campus is a full Starbucks location in the space formerly occupied by Mr. Sub (directly across from Security Services and the Helen Christou Gallery on the walkway to the Library). This location will offer everything patrons expect from Starbucks, including a full food and beverage menu as well as a seating area for studying or just meeting up with friends.</p> </div> </div>

this weekend.<br> <br> Presented by the Southern Alberta Technology Council (SATC), the event will take place on the track level of the 1st Choice Savings Centre for Sport and Wellness beginning Friday afternoon and wrapping up Saturday evening.<br> <br> Students in Grades four to 12 will present science projects with the chance of being selected to receive cash prizes and awards.<br> <br> This year, approximately 100 students will demonstrate more than 70 projects. The event requires more than 50 judges and volunteers, many from the U of L faculty, staff and alumni community.<br> <br> Up to four top students in the Grade 7 to 12 divisions will be chosen to represent Lethbridge at the Canada-Wide Science Fair, also taking place at the Ãâ·Ñ¸£Àû×ÊÔ´ÔÚÏß¿´Æ¬ of Lethbridge, May 11-18, where up to $1 million in cash, prizes and scholarships will be awarded.<br> <br> <strong>Science Fair projects </strong><br> <br> Science fair projects encourage students to focus on a science question or problem, conduct research, construct and test a hypothesis, analyze data and then draw conclusions.<br> <br> Further, students are challenged to communicate their results to science fair judges who will determine the students' level of understanding of their project. Projects have been pre-registered and are presented individually or with a partner. Participation in science fair projects has been known to lead to a life-long interest in science and has influenced many a career choice.<br> <br> <strong>Science Olympics </strong><br> <br> Four-person teams work together to solve a hands-on science challenge. (In 2012, students worked against the clock to build the longest self-supporting Pinocchio nose). Divisions for the Science Olympics competition are Grades 4 to 6, 7 to 9 and 10 to 12.<br> <br> This year, the event features 140 youth who take part in a surprise science challenge competition and are supported by more than 30 U of L Faculty of Education students, co-ordinated by Cynthia Greenfield, a local educator on secondment to the Faculty of Education, as well as a SATC volunteer.<br>

schema:articleBody"> <p>The Ãâ·Ñ¸£Àû×ÊÔ´ÔÚÏß¿´Æ¬ of Lethbridge, together with 1st Choice Savings and Credit Union, is once again taking the opportunity to help the community engage in play.</p><p>After an enormously successful inaugural event, which drew thousands of children and parents, the U of L is readying to host its second annual – and free – Play Day event on Family Day (Monday, February 18). The circus-themed event runs from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. at the 1st Choice Savings Centre for Sport and Wellness, the Max Bell Regional Aquatic Centre and the Ascent Climbing Centre.</p><p>"Play Day is designed to reach out to the community, but on another level it's trying to communicate about the value of play for families," says Ãâ·Ñ¸£Àû×ÊÔ´ÔÚÏß¿´Æ¬ of Lethbridge President, Dr. Mike Mahon, who introduced Play Day at the Ãâ·Ñ¸£Àû×ÊÔ´ÔÚÏß¿´Æ¬ in 2012 to promote the positive aspects of play and its influence on creating healthy individuals and healthy communities. "The concept is really focused on families, not just on children – we are encouraging families to come and play together."</p><p><div class="image-caption-container" style="width:500px;"><img src="/unews/sites/default/files/main/articles/play-day.jpg" alt="Play Day" title="Katie Mahon, daughter of Ãâ·Ñ¸£Àû×ÊÔ´ÔÚÏß¿´Æ¬ President Dr. Mike Mahon, assists in the construction zone at last year&amp;#039;s inaugural Play Day event.

This year&#039;s circus-themed party should be even bigger and better.</div></div> </p><p>The circus theme of this year's event includes a number of new activities added to the popular play zones from the inaugural Play Day. Among the added activities is a Music Zone where drop-in Kindermusik classes and sound bingo will entertain children aged zero to 18 months, as well as a drop-in world drumming area. Carnival games have been added, as well as a Toonie Barbecue area and a Fitastic Play zone for toddler fitness. For those daring enough to scale the heights, the Ascent Climbing Centre's climbing wall will also be open to the public.</p><p>"We're excited to be a part of Play Day again this year, and I think it will be even bigger and better than last year's event," says Brian Kinahan (BMgt '79), president and CEO of major sponsor 1stChoice Savings. "As a community-minded organization, we're thrilled to partner with the Ãâ·Ñ¸£Àû×ÊÔ´ÔÚÏß¿´Æ¬ and present this opportunity for southern Alberta families to come together and enjoy the amenities here at the U of L 1st Choice Savings Centre for a day of play."</p><p>Last year, a massive cardboard construction zone was a hit with participants of all ages, and will be back this year, with even more space (and cardboard) to play with.</p><p>"It was so much fun to see parents and young kids playing together," says Mahon. "They were cutting shapes and playing make believe and the parents were playing as much as the kids were, and that was really cool to watch. That's the real sprit of Play Day and if we as a university can contribute to families by encouraging play, then we're doing a good thing."</p><p>Following is a list of free activities available at Play Day 2013</p><p>Science – Airzookas; Air Pressure Funnel; Science Toy Circus</p> <p>Technology – Tri-flexa Hexagons; Scratch Programming; Mobius Strip</p> <p>Art &amp; Creative – Carnival Hats;

Information Services outlet located directly across from Tim Hortons in the 1st Choice Savings Centre for Sport and Wellness. This operation, which just recently opened, is yet another initiative from the Recruitment and Retention Project.</p><p>To develop the initial operation, Ryan Hall has been seconded as the operational manager in a strategic partnership with Sport &amp; Recreation Services. Campus Information Services (CIS) team members are also members of the U-Crew, a group of students trained by Recruitment and Student Life in way-finding, general service information and conducting campus tours.</p><p>&quot;This pool of trained students is an enormous benefit in pulling together a knowledgeable team,&quot; says Hall.</p><p><div class="image-caption-container" style="width:500px;"><img alt="RRP info" src="/unews/sites/default/files/main/articles/rrp-info-timu.jpg" title="Operational manager Ryan Hall chats with a student at the Campus Information Services outlet."><div class="image-caption">Operational manager Ryan Hall chats with a student at the Campus Information Services outlet.</div></div></p><p>Although the majority of inquiries CIS receives have been related to way finding, team members are also equipped to provide Faculty information, general assistance and ID Card information, as well as distribution and pick-up services for departments.</p><p>Way finding includes the physical location of spaces on campus, as well as the location of service information on the web; e.g., the Ãâ·Ñ¸£Àû×ÊÔ´ÔÚÏß¿´Æ¬ Calendar. Slightly more than half of the inquiries to date are from students, with the other inquiries coming from faculty, staff and the local community.</p><p>Other duties for CIS team members include assisting several student service units across campus in developing programs and databases and monitoring the Services for Students web page to ensure all web links are active.</p><p>&quot;This is a win-win situation, because it allows our students the opportunity to gain more information about our student services from across campus, then turn around and share that information more broadly,&quot; says Hall. &quot;It also gives these units increased and more sustainable service levels and provides much more information to our clients.&quot;</p><p>When major campus events such as convocation, Horns Athletics, New Student Orientation and the campus open house take place, the CIS outlet space is shared.</p><p>Campus Information Services will also co-ordinate the services within the Collaborative Learning Centre located in the Ãâ·Ñ¸£Àû×ÊÔ´ÔÚÏß¿´Æ¬ Hall Atrium, along with a support team of service professionals such as Library Peer-Assisted Technology Support Students (PATTS), and the I.T. Solutions Centre staff.</p><p>While the operation has only been open a few months, Hall and his team have already accumulated a great deal of information for distribution, and made connections across campus. They are now entering the next phase of implementation by co-ordinating their services for the downtown Penny Building and the Ãâ·Ñ¸£Àû×ÊÔ´ÔÚÏß¿´Æ¬&#39;s Calgary and Edmonton campuses. As well, the creation of a web site is in the planning stages, bringing the information to an online format. The end goal is to provide one central location for the collection and distribution of general Ãâ·Ñ¸£Àû×ÊÔ´ÔÚÏß¿´Æ¬ information, as well as a meeting place for campus tours.</p><p>Campus Information Services operates from 8:30 a.m. to 7 p.m., Monday to Friday with reduced hours heading into the holiday period.
