We have launched the Giving Tree at all three Sheridan campuses. The Giving Tree is there to collect food and clothing donations. Learn more online at thessu.ca about this initiative and how you can get involved! 

"I chose to be brutally honest with myself. Because you have to… it helps me identify things that I need to work on, poor habits I needed to let go of, all in the attempt to become the best version of myself. " 

"I would say that, for me, addressing the shame of being a man with emotions has been the most important thing I have done to date." 

"Eventually, I came to terms with it and accepted what I was feeling but I became very cynical and didn’t want to get better because it would always come back. I accepted that this was my life now." 

"I started to then also work myself up about the smallest things, such as why others were not picking up on my change in behaviour. I was emotional all the time with constant mood swings, which had little to no reasoning behind them."

What was your favourite memory during the process of moving here? I was really freaked out, I was really scared because I was all alone.  However, when I landed in the airport, everyone was greeting me saying, “Hi, How are you?”  It made me feel comfortable and made me think to myself, “I’m going to be okay.” - Learn more about Sparshi's journey and other student journeys on our Sheridan Life blog! 

Did you have any self-doubt moving to Canada? It is my luck to come here... it is my fate to live here. People haven’t gotten the chances that I have gotten, so I am really thankful to God that I had the chance to come. - Learn more about Vaibhav's journey and other student journeys on our Sheridan Life blog! 

 What motivates you to live that way? I wanted to do something like what my parents did.  I know that if I stayed in India my parents would definitely support me with everything.  I want to be independent and do something new. I wanted to do something that belongs to me and not the people I know… I wanna be able to say that I started from scratch. - Learn more about Prasad's journey and other student journeys on our Sheridan Life blog! 

What are your goals and aspirations? I want to really make a difference, not just in my work environment, but in society; like to be a real valuable part of society. I really aim to make a difference in people's life. - Learn more about Ashleigh's journey and other student journeys on our Sheridan Life blog! 

If you could go back in time, and give yourself advice (when you decided to come to Canada) what advice would you give yourself? "I don’t know if this is a word, but “geek-a-tizing” myself sooner." - Learn more about Omar's journey and other student journeys on our Sheridan Life blog!
