Dr. Ben Muller, Program Coordinator for King's Minor in Migration and Border Studies Program, spoke to CBC Kids about the hesitancy by many Canadians to cross the U.S.-Canada border. This was part of a story about a group of Toronto high school students being unable to travel to Kansas City, Missouri, for a competition due to concerns around safety.

Dr. Jennifer Silcox, Assistant Professor of Childhood and Youth Studies, lent her research knowledge in crime in Canada involving youth and girls to a CBC story about the beating of a young teenager in a London city park. She says that overall, youth crime rates are very low, so any increase in those numbers can be misconstrued.

The Knowledge Exchange and Impact Celebration honoured this year’s recipients of the Renée Soulodre-La France Excellence in Research Award (Early Career), King’s Research Excellence Chair – Established, King’s Research Excellence Scholar Grants, and King’s SIG Explore and Exchange Grants.

Dr. Thomas Tieku says his election to this position is “a clear indication that King’s punches above its weight and has an outstanding reputation not only in Canada but globally.”
