As Memorial University marks 100 years as a living memorial in 2025, all are invited to attend a panel discussion and tour on Saturday, April 26, from 1 to 4:30 pm on Memorial’s St. John’s campus.
In collaboration with the Royal Newfoundland Regiment (RNR), the event will reflect on how remembrance has shaped our identity, what it looks like in today’s world and how it will continue to evolve in the future.
