Bachelor of Arts, Psychology, University of King’s College (in progress)
Hello everyone! My name is Brooke, and I’m a psychology major at Dalhousie and the University of King’s College, where I began my studies in the Foundation Year Program.
During my first year, I lived in the lower level of Alex Hall, and I’m thrilled to be returning to the same residence where I started my university journey—this time as a Don.
I spent this past summer at home in Ontario shadowing a Speech Language Pathologist, and for the two summers before that, I worked as a counsellor at two different pediatric medical camps. I’m really excited to meet all of the incoming first-year students, to learn about your passions, and help you feel at home here.
Dons are either upper-year King’s students or young professionals who live within a residence floor or bay and provide support to residents in their community.
They can help with:
Dons are the first line of support for individuals living in residence. Residents are encouraged to reach out to their Don for initial support with any issues or concerns (residence-related or personal).
Dons do have their own commitments outside of King’s. Some are in their undergrad or working through a graduate degree; others have full-time jobs off campus. Dons will communicate their availability and contact information to their community members during the first community gathering meeting on Welcome Day.
There is a Don on Call available for urgent/immediate support each evening, weekend and holiday.
The Don on Call (4 p.m.–8 a.m. Mon–Fri & 24/7 on weekends and holidays) can assist with:
