What does the Gordie Howe International Bridge mean for Windsor and Detroit?🌉

Now that the bridge is open, the conversation goes beyond trade and transportation.

Dr. Lee Rodney explores what the new crossing could mean for the relationship between Windsor and Detroit - from reducing truck traffic and improving neighbourhoods to recognizing the Indigenous and Black histories woven into the region.

As Dr. Rodney puts it, the story isn’t just about trade. It’s about what the Detroit River has connected for centuries - and how we choose to understand that connection moving forward.
Read the full story to explore the bridge’s potential to reshape how we think about our shared region.

🎬 From UWindsor road trips to a new TV series!

Meet UWindsor alumnus Corey Palmer (BA Hons. ’12, BEd ’14), a Faculty of Arts, Humanities and Social Sciences (FAHSS) graduate whose love of food, travel and storytelling started with road trips alongside his closest friends.

Years later, those friendships have turned into Recommendations, a new six-episode food and travel series streaming now on Bell Fibe TV1. The series follows Corey and his friends as they explore Kingston’s restaurants, local businesses and community stories. 🍴🎥

Corey credits his time at UWindsor with helping shape the creativity, adaptability and storytelling skills that continue to guide his career.

And the UWindsor connections don’t stop there - fellow alumni Dan Yaworsky and Monique Renaud (BFA ’11) also contributed to the production.

A great reminder that the friendships and connections you make at UWindsor can take you places! ✨

Learning, serving, and growing - together. 🌍💙

This past spring, UWindsor students from Social Work, Education, and Nursing travelled to Tanzania as part of the Teach Tanzania service-learning experience. Working alongside local educators, health-care professionals, and community members, they built meaningful partnerships, shared knowledge, and gained invaluable lessons in collaboration, cultural humility, and global citizenship.

From classrooms to community health initiatives, the experience is one our students will carry with them throughout their careers.
