Dalhousie University reviews

I am currently in my 6th year of post-secondary school and in my first year at Dalhousie. The campus, resources and classrooms honour the true meaning of diversity, equity and inclusion. I feel a deep sense of belonging, acceptance, safety and security while earning my education, and learning the skills and tools to master my dreams, goals and potential. I am beyond grateful for the opportunity to earn my education on this campus to ensure that I can earn a spectacular career and make a difference in the world.

      My ordained destiny is to create artwork and literature to mobilize people to come together to create change within their communities for complex social issues. The social issues I will be focusing on will begin with the most venerable populations that are often not honoured a seat at tables when policy’s, laws and procedures are made about their equity seeking groups. I will educate people about the causes of social issues, prevention, ideology’s that contribute to them and what people can do in their communities to prevent them from escalating. I will use my artwork and literature to inspire through lived experience and story while honouring authentic leadership to represent change, growth and possibilities for a catastrophic shift in ideology’s. The shift in ideology will allow for the most venerable equity seeking groups to have a sense of belonging within their communities, significantly reduce crime rates and demonstrate the significant potential of divine oneness to ensure that we allow the most venerable people to contribute to our interrelated destinies by recognizing the power of divine oneness. 

Pros of earning my education at Dalhousie:

1) I firmly believe that all of my professors, the staff and leadership are extremely ethical, professional and well respected. They honour diversity and inclusion in their classrooms and spaces. I am beyond grateful for this. 
2) Our president is inspiring and a spectacular leader. She ensures that we all feel like we belong, included and welcome. She sends us welcome letters on the first day of school and a first day of school song list to ensure we are cared for and prepared for our journeys. She is authentic and values the true meaning of diversity, inclusion and leadership.
3) The campus is willing to constantly evolve by receiving feedback about anything at all. They also constantly evolve in regards to diversity, equity and inclusion to ensure all people feel a sense of belonging while reaching their goals. 
4) I am excited to see what my future holds during and after my educational journey

Cons of earning my education at Dalhousie:

1) I am extremely devastated that I didn’t decide to come to Dalhousie sooner because they offer a discrimination free school, stigma free classrooms and I feel safe here. Not all schools are willing to evolve like Dalhousie. 

Feedback and Ideas: 
1) Professionals and leaders please take time to rest and relax while knowing that your authentic leadership of having integrity, respect and compassion makes a significant difference on campus for your students. No need to be anxious about not being good enough or worrying about what needs improvement because you are already enough. Your authentic personalities and leadership while ensuring you represent diversity and inclusion is already more than most campuses.

I went to Saint Mary's University for 3 years but was suspended for voicing discomfort with stigma when there was no rule broken. They held my transcripts until 2099 which ruined my ability to get into a new school, my reputation and my career. I come to Dalhousie after that to try and restart my blessed life. I took creative writing for 1.5 years. Overall I firmly believe that Dalhousie is a very educational and professional school. They are very focused on equity, diversity and inclusion especially when it comes to mental health, poverty and disability. They allow their students to have freedom of expression without any limits unlike SMU where you have to walk around with the fears of punishments all the time if you give them criticism. I think that my professors went above and beyond to support in my academic journey. I went into a severe acute psychosis during my time at Dalhousie and my professors called the mobile crisis and peace officers to to wellness checks on me. They would come everyday sometimes multiple times a day to ensure that I was okay and alive. On the final day the brought 8 peace officers to involuntarily admit me into the psych ward against my will and forcefully medicate me. The peace officers stayed by my side for over 12 hours and even invited me to church with them. I stayed in the psych unit for 6 days until I snapped out of my psychosis. I am very grateful they they involuntarily took me to the hospital for psych treatment because I got the help I needed. They also went above and beyond to avocate for me to get resources needed to ensure I could thrive. I got assisted living, unlimited food, and psych nurses that come and check in on me once a week. I am very grateful that Dalhousie called the mobile crisis line and the peace officers working for them to ensure that I would be able to get the resources I need in order to thrive. I sadly needed to leave the school due to the nature of my disability and mental health but I am very grateful for my time there and their ability to avocate for resources for me.
