kimchipapa Posted March 30, 2017 Posted March 30, 2017 @yellowsweatygorilla Nice, I feel like anything other than these results that will get you nervous is definitely a welcome distraction haha
kimchipapa Posted March 30, 2017 Posted March 30, 2017 @p(ache)d what an unhelpful response on their part... as if we don't know that already
p(ache)d Posted March 30, 2017 Posted March 30, 2017 I guess they don't want to make any promises in case things go awry. Makes sense. It actually makes me feel a little better. I'm just going to (try to) not think about it or repeatedly check reserachnet. Just will wait for that email.
Suri18 Posted March 30, 2017 Posted March 30, 2017 Results are out! No luck for me sadly. Good luck everyone else!

thehungryscholar Posted May 1, 2017 Posted May 1, 2017 I got a Vanier this year (woo!) and accepted the offer a few weeks ago... but I haven't heard anything from them since re: details. Has anyone heard anything since they accepted their offer?
p(ache)d Posted May 5, 2017 Posted May 5, 2017 @thehungryscholar haven't heard anything yet. My friend won one last year and I think they start to do media training and outreach in the fall semester.

Your school will process most of the stuff for you. You will wait a long time for an official announcement. I believe it was October last year until we could make it public. After the award comes you don't hear much.

All the official announcements I've seen online from previous years appear to happen to October... so I figured as much. Just curious - have you had to do any interviews or anything like that?
p(ache)d Posted May 12, 2017 Posted May 12, 2017 @thehungryscholar like media interviews? nope. have you? @Lanie I remember my friend doing a media training webinar for the vanier...but I might be wrong...
Lanie Posted May 12, 2017 Posted May 12, 2017 I haven't been given that information. There was like a weird teleconference information type call where someone spoke about media right around the announcement but it wasn't 'training'. And other than my school paper, no one has ever interviewed me. I mean, we're not Trudeaus. Those guys get media training. There are like 4 of them. You do get a little package in the mail later on in the summer/fall with a star trek like V pin, pen and USB with Vanier on it. I thought that was really sweet but will wear that Pin nowhere. I mean...
