Victoria Youth Poet Laureate
The Ring
Ann-Bernice Thomas doesn’t hesitate when asked the most surprising aspect of being named the City of Victoria’s 2016 Youth Poet Laureate. “All the attention,” she says with a quick laugh. “Considering I didn't really hear anything about last year's poet, it's been really surprising . . . but nice.” A second-year double-major in theatre and writing, Thomas was announced as the new Youth Poet Laureate in January and quickly received a flurry of attention from nearly all of Victoria’s media outlets. Her one-year term, jointly funded by the City of Victoria and the Greater Victoria Public Library, ends on December 31, for which she will receive a $1,750 honorarium and $1,000 in special project funding.
New York state of mind
The Ring
Ross Rich, who graduates this November with a commerce degree from the Gustavson School of Business, has spun himself into his dream job already—as a Marketing Assistant with Columbia Records in New York City. Rich will also maintain the artist-management firm he started in 2013, which includes talented singer Jade Tjorhom (another UVic student) on its artist roster.

The awards—for creative writing on themes related to equity, diversity and inclusion—were presented on Jan. 30 at First Peoples House, during the opening reception of the Provost’s Diversity Research Forum: Arts, Allies and Activism.
A feast for the mind
The Ring
Most things only get better with age—in IdeaFest’s case, they also get bigger. Now in its second year, the University of Victoria’s popular festival of ideas has doubled in both length and content, running over two weeks from March 4–15 and featuring more than 50 free events from every faculty on campus (and more than half of UVic’s interdisciplinary research centres).
