College Program to be Adopted Locally


A local committee is looking at how to implement Confederation College's RESPECT campaign across the Rainy River district.

Trudy McCormick, co-chair of Celebrating Diversity, says the campaign, recognizing the value of diversity, would be a good fit for the area.

"It's very accessible," says McCormick. "What we want to look at is not just one issue or a narrow area of issues. It's a very broad focus. It aligns with the focus of the Diversity Committee to celebrate diversity in all its facets."

McCormick says they've formed a separate committee to review how aspects of the RESPECT campaign can be adopted.
