Meet Samira, a passionate third-year Environmental Science student at the University of Waterloo, known for her advocacy on campus for fair treatment and mental health awareness. Having transferred from a smaller college, she’s not afraid to stand up against what she perceives as unjust behavior, especially from faculty. Samira frequently engages with her peers to discuss not only academic challenges but also the importance of creating a respectful learning environment. With a knack for rallying support, she often finds herself leading discussions that challenge the status quo, all while balancing her studies and her role as an intern at a local conservation project.
