October break for students?
November 22, 2011
Movember moments
Sarah Hyatt The Chronicle
First semester at Durham College is no joke! In 15 weeks DC squeezes in a whole lot of learning, plus midterms, and final exams. “It makes the fall semester extremely intense for students and faculty,” said Judy Robinson, vicepresident of Academic Affairs. But if she had it her way students would get a break, at least during the month of October. And she hasn’t given up on the idea. The first month of school is often devoted to helping student’s transition to college smoothly.

NIKO IN MOTION: 21-year-old Culinary Arts student Niko Herold was nominated to run the Oshawa stretch in the Man in Motion relay tour.
The Rick Hansen Man in Motion tour rolled through Oshawa Nov. 3 as several locally nominated participants carried out their leg of the marathon. The tour, which started in Cape Spear, Newfoundland Aug. 24, will see around 7,000 people embark on their own individual journey before the tour ends in Vancouver, British Columbia on May 22 next year. This year’s tour comes 25 years after Hansen wheeled
himself across the world, clocking up an amazing 40,000 km as he travelled through 34 countries and four continents, all to raise awareness for those with spinal cord injuries. This garnered attention from all over the world and made the Man in Motion tour the big event it is today. One of those involved was 21-year-old Niko Herold, who suffers from cerebral palsy, and also has a learning disability.
