Waterloo Stratford Campus November events

In November and December, we bring you history and games. We talk virtual battlefields; smartphone apps that work for and entertain you, and look at how gamification has changed the way we live our lives. We also have a very special invitation for you to join us in welcoming our new Executive Director to campus. Be sure to come and join us for these and other events at the Waterloo Stratford Campus
