Hello, I’m Emily! I’m a former FYP student and I studied Political Science. Currently, I am studying English with hopes of pursuing an MI. I have additional interests in music, history and literature (the list goes on). I am happy to talk about essay ideas and readings with any incoming students, and always love a good book recommendation. Outside of classes, you’ll probably find me with a book or a notebook on my way to get coffee.  

I call a few places home, and I’ve enjoyed studying in Halifax. The King’s experience is unique and has a lot to offer. I love the community, and I am excited to be returning as a Don. I hope to contribute to a sense of belonging for new and returning students, and I look forward to engaging with the residence community. I can’t wait to meet you all!  

 


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:

  • Peer support & mentorship
  • Community building & programming
  • Conflict resolution between community members
  • Providing referrals to campus supports

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: 

  • After hours incident response  
  • After hours emergency response  
  • After hours mental health crisis response
