To Whom It May Concern:

Each semester the Education Undergraduate Society hosts a variety of Professional Development
seminars for the Faculty of Education students. Thanks to our invaluable speakers, these seminars offer
meaningful learning opportunities for aspiring educators. This letter is written to acknowledge Jordin
Peterson, who attended the following seminars during the Spring 2020 semester:

“Using Humanism as a Purpose for History” was presented on February 4, 2020, by Aaron Stout.
In this session, Aaron discussed the importance of using excellent narratives when teaching the
humanities, in order to foster an appreciation of different historical perspectives. He introduced
historical letters from soldiers, films, novels, and beautiful picture books as potential resources that
would make an excellent addition to any classroom.

“The Professional Code of Conduct is in Order” was presented on February 6, 2020, by Ian
Stewardson from the Alberta Teacher’s Association. He provided valuable information about the
ATA’s Professional Code of Conduct, providing actual examples of violations, and the disciplinary
actions that followed. This session offered a deeper understanding of the legal and professional
expectations that teachers are bound by.

“Are Your Parents Okay with You Listening to this Music?” was presented on February 10,
2020, by Dr. Thelma Gunn. In this session, Dr. Gunn provided a broad history of rap music, and
how it has influenced young people, especially those in lower socioeconomic communities. The
main discourse surrounded the importance of learning about these influences, in order to better
understand students to potentially help forge connections.
