The love for Acadia in Edmonton on October 28 was truly heartwarming. The first snow of the season had fallen earlier in the day and the temperature had dropped, but that didn’t stop a chatty group of Acadia alumni from gathering at Central Social Hall on Jasper Avenue for a great time.
A lively group of Global Bluenosers packed Kells Irish Restaurant for a Sociable! in San Francisco on October 24 that celebrated community, connection, and all things Nova Scotia! Organized by Sean Meister (’07), founder of Global Bluenosers, and joined by Acadia’s Vice-President, External Relations Nancy Handrigan ('92), guests enjoyed a classic East Coast evening in the City by the Bay, sharing stories about Nova Scotia, meeting old friends and making new ones.

Larger than life. Many are described that way, but few people can match the hype. Then there’s Bruce Phinney (’81). A dynamic personality, Bruce embodied the spirit and intention of Acadia University’s mandate and values. He was a fierce advocate for countless students, serving Acadia administration, alumni, faculty and staff with verve, intelligence, and insight. Acadia was his heart and soul, and why the Acadia Alumni Association is proud to announce that he is the 2024 recipient of the Isaac Chipman Award for Excellence in Alumni Service.
