NNSSA

Hi! My name is John Kupis, and I am the president of the Nutrition and Nutraceutical Science Student Association (NNSSA). We are a small program, but are very passionate about nutrition, and maintaining positive social circles. My role in the club, is facilitating the proper running of events, interactions with professors, running meetings, and ensuring everyone is able to be involved! One thing I would like to stress to anyone thinking about joining the club is to not be nervous about approaching us, we are always willing to help out and answer any questions you have regarding nutrition, student life, and courses! A fun fact about me is I went on exchange to Sweden for six months, and am learning to speak Swedish.

Botany Club

My name is Afrodita Pulendzovska. I am the president of the botany club here at the University of Guelph. I am in my 4th year of plant science. My responsibilities are to lead the executive team in organizing and running events as well as solving any problems that we may encounter. My favourite event to hold for the club is the annual trip to the royal botanical gardens. Everyone that comes has a lovely time and it’s a good way for members to bond and enjoy some beautiful plants. The botany club welcomes all students that enjoy plants or want to know more about them. Fun fact about myself is that plant science was originally my minor however I loved it so much I decided to switch and make it my major.

I’m Kiana Lee, a 3rd year Plant Science student. As Co-VP of Botany Club I plan meetings, greenhouse and lab tours. Botany Club is an awesome place to make new friends and build connections with related students and faculty.
Fun fact- My favourite place on campus is the herbariumm(a literal plant museum)!
