This year's recipients of Dalhousie's top honour for alumni include chemist and neurologist Sultan Darvesh (MD’88); Stantec Vice-President of Practice Services and Indigenous Relations Denise Pothier (BEng’93); accountant and community leader Doug Reid (BComm’82); and health-care leader and philanthropist Robert Zed (MHS’86).

Travis McDonough (BScK’94) CEO and founder of Kinduct Technologies Inc. — a Halifax-based athletic performance tracking software company that works with dozens of professional sports franchises — has announced the sale of Kinduct to Silicon Valley tech company mCube.

The acclaimed sitcom Schitt's Creek, co-created by Dal honorary degree holder Eugene Levy and starring alum Sarah Levy, swept to a record-breaking seven wins in the comedy category at Sunday’s Emmy Awards.

Performer and playwright Katerina Bakolias (BA’15) knew she wanted to incorporate her grandfather’s stories into a creative project after receiving a grant from the National Theatre School’s Art Apart Program, so she transformed them into radio plays to create My Grandfather’s True Stories.
