May is Sexual Violence Prevention Month. Sexual assault centres have spent time and energy into bringing awareness to sexual violence for decades. This month the Ontario Coalition of Rape and Crisis Centres (OCRCC) is highlighting the work of using this awareness to further practice violence prevention, using a Survivors First approach. The OCRCC says it takes a community to end sexual violence – this work cannot be done alone and there is room for everyone to get involved.

The Capstone Project course in SLC's Game Programming program is designed to emulate a studio environment. Students create detailed design and technical documents and worked collaboratively in small teams of 4-5 learning to effectively use source control software like Git (github), set up automated build systems using Jenkins, communicate through Discord, prioritize tasks on Atlassian JIRA, and use the game engine Unity to create finished products with the goal of releasing a playable game to a publishing market by the end of the semester.
