...the greatest place to be for...
“MCYU is the greatest place to be for a kid! To be free to be a kid who wants to learn is awesome, to be allowed to spend time at ouruniversity makes me feel special.”

...they do an amazing job...
“As with many of the speakers, they do an amazing job. I know this when, after a lecture, the first things I hear my daughter say is: “I can’t wait to go to university, how many more years now Mum?” I can’t thank the people behind MCYU enough for lighting this desire in my daughter.”
Parent
...the program demystifies university...
“Besides the wonderful lectures, the program de-mystifies university for children – particularly those whose parents did not attend university. It also reinforces the idea of lifelong learning. Way to go!!”
Parent
...absolutely loved the workshops...
“The kids absolutely loved the workshops and were very engaged and excited about their learning!”
Teacher
...some of the possibilities...
“Many of the kids’ parents are new to Canada and do not have a lot of knowledge about post-secondary education. The MCYU events allowed them to be exposed to some of the possibilities out there.”
Staff
...amazing opportunities...
“The MCYU events were an amazing opportunity for my group of students. They were so eager to attend each month and would discuss the lectures and activities for days afterwards.”
Staff
...very exciting to collaborate...
“I returned as a facilitator, as I really enjoyed my experiences with MCYU in the past and have always found it very exciting to collaborate with students from other departments, while applying our theoretical knowledge to create fun and intriguing exercises.”
