Congratulations to Dr. Donna Strickland, Associate Professor in the Department of Physics and Astronomy at #UWaterloo, is one of three scientists to win this year's Nobel Prize in Physics. She is the first woman to receive this award in 55 years. #NobelPrize #UWaterlooProud
"We scientists like to puzzle as to why something is working."
Donna Strickland never worked as hard or had as much fun as when she was performing the research that led her to the 2018 #NobelPrize in Physics.

"I reflect on the shy girl who moved from a small-town into a floor on REV in first year and I almost don’t recognize her because my time at Waterloo has helped me grow and flourish." - Co-op Affairs Commissioner Hannah reflects on the past year: ow.ly/lEeK30jtDwo

Stoked to match other donors' contributions in 1 hr! Will match *any* donation but personal favorites of mine are student run endowments like WEEF, WatSEF, WESEF, MEF, AEF. They get students involved in investing/building @uwaterloo and focus on the long-term #GivingTuesdayCA teapawt.net/WaterlooENG/status/935…
Later tonight between 8:00PM-9:00PM our very own #WaterlooEngineering @uwaterlooalumni & Director of @UWVelocity, @j4shah will be matching donations to @UWaterloo - let's keep #GivingTuesdayCA going! ow.ly/NujO30gRRGX
