Trending: For the week of September 19 – 25

Welcome to ‘Trending’, where each week we share a few things to watch for on social media.

Here’s what we’re talking about this week:

• It’s Homecoming week! We’d love to see your photo memories as you revisit campus…tag them #umhomecoming on Instagram and Twitter.
• Speaking of Homecoming, don’t miss our exciting inaugural event Queers, Cheers and Homecoming Years! There will be a DJ, a donut wall, a signature cocktail, great people and more.
• Thanks to all who took part in our #umorientation Instagram Photo Challenge! You can check out @umanitoba on Instagram to see all of the winning photos.
• Find out why students are saying #IDeclareIndigenous.
• Football, soccer, hockey…cheer on the herd for all the big fall games at #GoBisons!
• This Wednesday marks the return of our award-winning Visionary Conversations series. The first topic is reconciliation and there’s an amazing line-up of speakers. Follow the conversation at #umvisionary.
• Manitoba’s Idea Competition is back! Undergrad, grad and post-doc students in Manitoba have a chance to win $10,000 for their great ideas. Check out #gamechangermb.

As always, join us and the rest of our community talking about the U of M by following #umanitoba on Twitter and Instagram.
