In celebration of #SheridanPride 2021, four talented Sheridan Animation students created their own unique design for our Pride sticker collection. When asked about this design, Apollo said “I based my sticker design around D&D because I find that the escapism aspect of the game resonates with many LGBT+ creators (including myself).”

“School keeps me going. School allows me to keep pushing and do what I strive to accomplish in life. We only have one life, so my advice is for you to do everything you want to do. If you believe it you can honestly achieve it.”

“I didn’t know how to contribute outside of the marches that were already in progress. What else could I bring to the table? So, I wrote. Historians. The poem was originally meant to provide understanding. A sense of understanding is powerful enough to end wars. Hopefully, some people who may know me may begin to empathize with the issue at hand and see another perspective.”

“I now believe all these were learning experiences. What I love most about Sheridan is that even though they make you feel welcome, no matter what part of the globe you’re from, they offer equal opportunities to everyone.”

“The term, “study abroad”, may sound fancy and appealing to any person, since it owns itself to the promise of a better learning environment and a guarantee of the extraordinary experience; yet, not everyone can quickly adapt to it. Likewise, the majority of international students will often be encountering different challenges when they are living in a completely new place, whereas some experience conflicts of interest, cultures, and perspectives.”

“Looking back, I wonder to myself if I would be the person I am today if I decided to go to another school. Would the person I am today have been the person I was always going to be if things were different? Or was it dependent on the path I took?”

“For the first two years of my life here at Sheridan, I did nothing but academics. Attend class and leave. During the second year of my diploma, I managed to handle class time without so much as saying “hello” to other people. It almost became a challenge to float by unnoticed. It was a silent piece of pride at first, but it quickly became a feeling that left me a little hollow…”

“Change steered my boat and I trusted its direction. If an opportunity presented itself at the right time, I took it. If help knocked on my door, I welcomed it. I genuinely believe that it was not by fate but by my faith in God that caused all the above to occur..”

“Sheridan didn’t seem any different from other schools when I first started. The same new student orientation, the same services provided and the same amount of homework. However, as I slowly began to get to know people, my perspective started to change…”

“My first day of learning at school was essentially a student orientation program that introduced us, newcomers, to the academic and social aspects of life on and off campus. Needless to say, I was overwhelmed by every bit of information thrown my way and I did not know where to start. From this point onward, I felt every bit of motivation gradually being picked apart as I started the school year on a weak note…”

“Let’s be, honest learning in this pandemic is difficult. There are plenty of at-home distractions. Personally, I’m missing that in-class environment. I am currently studying Animation; a huge part of that learning is talking to others to explore ideas and get feedback from those around you. We essentially learn how to work in a studio environment during our time at school…”

“If I could give any great wisdom from my time at Sheridan, it’s that you can do it, no matter what you might think or how hard it might seem. Lean on professors, ask for help, take care of yourself and your mental health, and distance yourself as quickly as you can from toxicity and negativity.”
