Elizabeth Yeo, StFX vice president of students, said the first priority for the university is the health and safety of the students. X is providing supervision and support for the students in residences with 24/7 mental health support and planned a visit with the St. John’s therapy dogs. Facilities will be open during the regular business days for physical activities.
Also, they have a number of holiday themed events for off and on-campus students including a supervised hub in the student union building. They are letting students know about the outdoor activities planned in the town and county while the Golden X inn will be open a number of nights for things like trivia and games.
Yeo pointed to the Antigonish Adopt a StFX Student for Xmas Facebook page started by Cindy Partridge, where students and community members can connect. Yeo also mentioned getting a call from the Atlantic Superstore management team, noting they are preparing some fun for the students
