(March 3, 2022) - As Laurentian University welcomes back students with the resumption of in-person classrooms this week, the university community is also preparing to welcome many more future students at the March 12th Open House.
Laurentian’s Liaison Services delivers the event and supports the future student journey towards post secondary education. Liaison is the first point of contact for all persons interested in programs and services offered by Laurentian, and team members are dedicated to guiding those considering the University as their post secondary destination of choice.
Stéphanie Ménard, a third year Psychology student and Caleb Piché-Larocque, a fourth year Business Administration student, are Liaison’s current Senior Student Ambassadors. Both are francophones and expect to graduate with certificates of bilingualism.
“We provide guidance to the many student ambassadors who work in Liaison. We also support the organization and smooth execution of events,” said Ménard. While Ménard has worked with Liaison since the first semester of her undergrad, Piché-Larocque joined the Liaison team in his second year. Speaking about his passion for student recruitment, Piché-Larocque said as follows: “I’ve enjoyed my student experience, and sharing that experience with future students is very rewarding.” Ménard agrees and outlined that a reason why she loves her job so much is because it enables her to “make a positive impact.” As she described: “The Liaison team is amazing. Everybody is passionate about their work, and we do our best to ensure that each and every prospective student experience to Laurentian, is unique.”
According to Liaison’s Events and Communications Coordinator, Danielle Yasko-Pellerin, “student ambassadors like Stéphanie and Caleb are inspiring. They come to work every day ready to help students from around the world.”
While Liaison Services regularly offer information sessions and campus tours to showcase Laurentian’s beautiful campus, the current focus is this year’s March Open House event, on Saturday, March 12, 2022, 10am - 3pm. This in-person event will include an academic and services fair, as well the opportunity to participate in a personalized campus tour.
Registration for Open House is available online.
