UWindsor will welcome Grade 10/11 students to campus for an information session on Saturday February 1 from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. in the Anthony P. Toldo Health Education Centre. This is an exciting new event for prospective students and their families to gain insight into course selection for their upper years of high school and will provide information on career exploration. 

Josh Mutus
Quantum supremacy

Scientists at Google say that they have achieved quantum supremacy, a long-awaited milestone in quantum computing. The announcement, published in Nature, followed a leak of an early version of the paper which Google did not comment on at the time.
 
In a world first, a team led by John Martinis and includes Josh Mutus BSc '06, an experimental physicist at the University of California, Santa Barbara, and Google in Mountain View, California, says that its quantum computer carried out a specific calculation that is beyond the practical capabilities of regular, 'classical' machines1. The same calculation would take even the best classical supercomputer 10,000 years to complete, Google estimates. 

Donald Mavinic
Order of Canada

UWindsor alumnus Donald Mavinic BASc '69, MASc '71, PhD '73, a professor emeritus in the Department of Civil Engineering at the University of British Columbia and an internationally recognized expert in water treatment, recently received a call to the Order of Canada from Gov. Gen. Julie Payette.

The announcement praised Dr. Mavinic for his contributions to environmental engineering science and technology in Canada, notably in the areas of liquid wastewater and residuals management.

Membership in the order is extended to people "whose service shapes our society, whose innovations ignite our imaginations, and whose compassion unites our communities."
Franklin Ezenwa
Book offers students tips to succeed 

As a student Franklin Ezenwa BSc '15, volunteered as a mentor with Connecting4Sucess, a program that matches new UWindsor students with upper year students to provide support with transitioning into university. This experience inspired him to write a book to help students succeed.

His book Be a high achiever: Achieving all-round success in College & University is a culmination of his surveys of current university students, research and experiences. It includes tips on planning a successful school journey by selecting the right program, setting achievable goals, maintaining balance between school and life and more.
