New Campus Hosts at Grebel

The Conrad Grebel University College community is delighted to introduce Madeleine Neufeld and Max Chute as new Campus Hosts, while bidding a heartfelt farewell to Charles Biswas and Clare Malakar, who have served in this position for the last two and a half years. 

The Conrad Grebel Review, established in 1983, was an initiative of Conrad Grebel University College’s first Chaplain and Religious Studies Professor Walter Klaassen. In his introduction to the first issue, he located the journal at a critical moment of Mennonite self-assurance and noted that the time was ripe for a journal that looked at the present and towards the future.

The spring term at Conrad Grebel University College is often a time for construction or renovation projects. This year, as part of Grebel’s residence renewal projects, the College is completely replacing four of six residence washrooms, marking a major step forward in this capital project.
