In a release, the university says during his term, Hakin safely and successfully led St. FX through the global pandemic, one of only a few universities in Canada that held classes in-person.
The release states last year, Hakin introduced a five year strategic plan, launched initiatives such as the President’s Action Committee on Anti-Racism and the creation of the Victor and Mona Daldelah Institute for Innovation in Health.
