'Good health and happy holidays': A message from Alexandra Gillespie

As the holiday season approaches, Alexandra Gillespie, University of Toronto vice-president and principal, ³ΤΉΟ±¬ΑΟ Mississauga, urges students, faculty, staff, librarians and alumni to find time to β€œrest, relax and enjoy the company of friends.”

In her message, Gillespie reflects on how the community has come together again on campus, following the biggest back-to-school ever.

In the past few months, she notes, ³ΤΉΟ±¬ΑΟ Mississauga has raised a tipi for Indigenous ceremony and connection, opened a nation-leading student robotics lab, expanded a network for diabetes care and is preparing to open one of the greenest lab spaces in North America.   

Most importantly, ³ΤΉΟ±¬ΑΟ Mississauga has welcomed an extraordinary group of students who continue to β€œcreate new knowledge and new collaborations and to find new ways to lift each other up,” she says. 

β€œI’m deeply grateful to be part of this community and to have the opportunity to work, learn, and give back with you,” says Gillespie. β€œOn behalf of ³ΤΉΟ±¬ΑΟ Mississauga, I wish you good health and happy holidays.”
