Happy Thanksgiving
26 Nov 2020

Thanksgiving Day is an annual national holiday in the United States and Canada celebrating the harvest and other blessings of the past year.
In the US Thanksgiving is celebrated on the fourth Thursday of November while in Canada nearly one month and a half earlier (second Monday of October). Thanksgiving has deep roots in religious tradition, but nowadays it is primarily celebrated as a secular holiday.
The International Office would like to wish all our US and Candian students a Happy Thanksgiving!
