March 21 - Campion College 2024 Nash Lecture with Dr. John Zilcosky


Join us at Campion College Auditorium, where Dr. Zilcosky will explore the ancient belief that wrestling was a way to honour the gods, become a hero, and prove oneself as a champion. He will also suggest another, more modern reason: early cultures needed a way to indulge and contain their urge for violence. Don't miss this thought-provoking lecture! The event is open to all.

March 27 - 2024 Inspiring Leadership Forum presented by TD


The University of Regina’s Inspiring Leadership Forum is a premier leadership development event that is focused on women — bringing people together from Saskatchewan and beyond to hear the inspirational stories of internationally renowned leaders, and to connect with colleagues and peers. In celebration of our 15th anniversary, the theme for 2024 is Go Far, Together. Drawn from the University of Regina’s tagline and inspired by a spirit of hope and compassion, it acknowledges that only through a collective spirit do we stand the best chance to succeed. Each of our 2024 featured speakers embodies that collective spirit in their own ways and are doing their part to change the world — and the role of women in it.
