We are excited to welcome Dr. Airini to TRU as our next president and vice-chancellor. She returns to campus on July 1, taking the helm from Dr Brett Fairbairn.

Airini is known for her work on student success and equity. She was dean of TRU’s Faculty of Education and Social Work from 2014 to 2021.

Wonderful energy last week as 180 newly admitted TRU students explore their program options. Huge interest in the new Honours Certificate, allowing students to graduate with both a major and with honours certification on their transcripts.
