On behalf of the Calgary Journal team, welcome back!

As fall settles in over Calgary, we are excited to bring you another edition of our Calgary Journal newsletter (after a much-needed summer break).

With the semester now in full swing here at Mount Royal University, we โ€” newsletter editors Riley Stang and Riley Fonger โ€” will bring you weekly editions. Thanks to the hard work of the Calgary Journal team, we will keep you updated on interesting stories, events taking place in the city, and showcase photos submitted to the Journal by staff and students.

Meet the Calgary Journal editorial team here.

So, without further ado, we hope you enjoy.
