On Saturday, May 11, as part of its 50
th
anniversary
celebration, the Université de Moncton held open houses on
its three campuses. The public was able to tour the facilities,
laboratories and other attractions in which the institution
takes great pride. This was also an occasion to meet those
who are at the core of the university community.
The Moncton Campus hosted a luncheon with entertainment
for the entire family. Visitors could participate in guided
tours with a choice of five circuits: culture, discovery, health,
the Aigles and a potpourri.
In Edmundston, the mood was festive. It was an occasion
for community folks to discover the campus’ ultramodern
facilities and to join alumni representation from each decade
of the institution’s history for a meal including a superb
50

In Shippagan, visitors had the opportunity to attend a
conference by Université du Québec à Chicoutimi Eco-
Council Chair director Claude Villeneuve, an expert in
climate change. He focused on new developments in climate
change. Visitors could also participate in guided tours
focusing on research, student services and the Coastal
Zones Research Institute.
