In 2009, a Nova Scotia student was bullied at school for wearing a pink shirt. His classmates decided to support him by wearing pink t-shirts in response—and Pink Shirt Day was born.

This year, �鶹��Ƶstudents, staff and faculty are encouraged to wear pink on Feb. 26 as a promise to practice kindness and stand against bullying in all its forms. The theme for Pink Shirt Day 2020 is “lift each other up”: a simple but powerful message encouraging us to look beyond our differences and celebrate the things that make us unique.

In celebration of Pink Shirt Day, �鶹��Ƶcampus security officers will be handing out pink toques and frisbees across �鶹��Ƶcampuses. We encourage the �鶹��Ƶcommunity to wear pink on Feb. 26 and show your support for ending bullying and harassment on campus, in the workplace and online.
