Thank you so much for your patience over the past couple of days. In light of the COVID-19 virus, it is with great regret that we have come to the conclusion that we will be postponing tomorrow's SCARP Student Symposium.

[SCARP's Community Conversation Series @scarp_symposium]

This decision has been taken with a heavy heart knowing the work that our student organizing team have put into the event and the inspiration that the Symposium would have provided. We will be exploring the possibility of the Symposium taking place in the fall.

We are officially SOLD OUT of tickets for this year’s SCARP Symposium! We look forward to seeing you all this Thursday, March 12th!

As we get ready for the school year, we’re excited to pass the torch to the incoming 1st year SCARPies, who will be running the SCARP Symposium in 2020! Over the next few days, we’ll be posting some of our highlights from our event this past spring. Photo credit: Summer Rayne

We have so many biases for what we feel makes a good storyteller... charismatic, succinct, articulate, good English... we have to be better listeners and make the time and space for people who don’t immediately meet those criteria @Jay_Pitter #SCARPsymp

[Becca Mayers @becmayers]

Incredibly great insights by @Jay_Pitter on both the personal and political practice of city building. Monologues aren't stories. We must elevate others by sharing authorship and reciprocate to the communities who share their lived experiences. #SCARPsymp

[SCARP's Community Conversation Series @scarp_symposium]

THANK YOU participants, panelists and sponsors for an inspiring day filled with reflection about stories, spaces & the role of planning. Thank you @Jay_Pitter & @Skusgluums for your inspiring keynotes. Us 1st yr SCARP students are so grateful for such an amazing day. #SCARPsymp
