Community. Conversation. Connection.
Learning at Thompson Rivers University goes far beyond the classroom. In-depth conversations with peers and with experts about contemporary social and political issues is an integral part of the university experience and a longstanding tradition on campuses.
Our Breaking Bread project aims to connect students with community leaders, one conversation at a time. We invite diverse community leaders with a wide range of expertise and interests to have conversations and share food with small groups of students. Our hope is to build community, share perspectives, foster connection, and restore community conversation.
If you have an idea for a topic, know a great community leader we should connect with, or are interested in joining an upcoming conversation contact campaigns@trusu.ca or view our upcoming events here. Please note that spots are limited.
Throughout the year we will be updating the section below with our past conversations.
