UBC Food Services: What’s Cooking in Residence Dining
It’s not every food service operation that needs to feed a vibrant, young population each one of its meals, every day during an exciting, sometimes stressful, and transformative 8-month period. But that is definitely the case for our team in UBC Food Services. Read on to find out more about what makes our operation truly unique.
Child Care Services: At The Heart of the Matter
The team at UBC Child Care Services (UBC CCS) cares for over 600 children at 27 locations across campus. And yet, for the hundreds of families with children in care, Child Care Services offers a personal and familiar environment that belies the size of their organization. Read on to find out how they make it feel like home for each child and family.
Residence Life: Beyond the Buildings
Over 13,000 students live in residence at UBC – at both the Vancouver and Okanagan campuses. Between the two campuses, we have 17 residence communities – and each year we open a new residence or house to accommodate the growing campus population. But within UBC Student Housing, our Residence Life teams go way beyond just providing students with a room to study and sleep in.
New Totem Park House Name
At a wonderful and moving unveiling ceremony on Wednesday, September 27, 2017 the new name for Building 7 at Totem Park Residence was gifted to UBC and SHHS by the Musqueam First Nation. We are so honoured to be gifted this very important name in Musqueam history and culture: c̓əsnaʔəm House, or c̓əsnaʔəm leləm̓.

We sat down with Lisa Kanavaros, a Sales Manager with C&A, to go behind the scenes and find out how it all comes together.
