Sainte-Anne has been using three sources of renewable energy on its Church Point campus: a solar thermal system for domestic hot water, a gasification biomass furnace, a 50-kW wind turbine.

The combined impact of the 118 solar panels and the wood chip furnace has enabled the institution to save 50% of its energy costs, thanks to the cost difference between biofuels/solar energy and conventional fuels. The wind turb…

At Acadia University, we’re proud of our family tree. It’s filled with those who have made a difference and made their mark on the world. We trace our roots to 1838, when Baptist leaders reached a breaking point in their ability to access higher education. If they could not become students or teachers at other universities because of their denomination, they would create their own university and remove barriers for themselves and others. In 1884, Acadia pushed down another roadblock by admitting women to its university. Clara Belle Marshall (Raymond) became one of the first women in Canada to obtain a university degree. Another barrier was removed a few years later w…
