The Humanity Behind the Sciences

The Humanity Behind the Sciences Society aims to help create a more inclusive and cognitively diverse science culture by highlighting the values behind research and teaching at Dalhousie University. Through interviews with professors and researchers, we explore the motivations behind scientific work, how personal experiences shape research questions, and the ways diverse perspectives influence science and health. Science does not exist in a vacuum as what society chooses to study and what it overlooks reflects our values and systems of power. By encouraging conversations around how personal identity influences scientific practice, we aim to challenge the idea that science is completely detached from the people who practice it. We also aim to acknowledge the interdisciplinary nature of science and how it intersects with other disciplines or skillsets. Our interviews are transformed into accessible articles and media so students can see that our identities are not separate from science, but strengthen the way we engage with it. By humanizing science and showcasing diverse pathways into academia, we hope to instil a sense of belonging in undergraduate students entering the sciences and help bridge the gap between scientific research and the communities it serves.

SODALES - The Dalhousie and King's Debate Society

Sodales provides the opportunity for Dalhousie and King’s College students to engage in competitive and non-competitive debates on a range of topics. We debate in two different styles throughout the year, British Parliamentary in the Fall, and Canadian Parliamentary in the Winter. Throughout the year, we provide a range of learning opportunities through training days and seminars as well as weekly practices.

For those who are interested, we provide partially funded opportunities to attend debate tournaments locally, nationally, and internationally. Sodales also provides debate leadership opportunities through our exec positions and opportunities to serve on the organisation committees of the 3 to 4 debate tournaments we host each year.

Beyond debate, Sodales also organizes social events to grow to culture of our society and to foster discussion in a less formal setting.
