Students in the news
Current students at Concordia do outstanding academic work and get involved in community projects that improve our quality of life. See what they've been up to:

- Maclean’s on Campus reports that more than 50 people gathered in Gatineau, Quebec on Saturday to protest the Canadian Federation of Students (CFS) to draw attention to the various university student unions, including Concordia’s CSU, that are trying to leave the CFS. The article quotes Melissa Kate Wheeler, president of the CSU. Northumberland View publishes a similar story.
- The Standard-Freeholder features a story about the varying gas prices in the Cornwall area and quotes Selie Ghafari, an ESSO employee who is also a student in the John Molson School of Business.
