The Gzowski Story
Accommodations for the 2023 OACUHO Spring Conference will be located in Gzowski College - our newest and most premium residence on our Peterborough campus.
Gzowski College is named after the distinguished Canadian broadcaster and former Trent Chancellor, Peter Gzowski.
Adored by Canadians, he was most famous as someone who listened and welcomed conversation and diverse opinions. That makes it fitting that Gzowski College is housed within Trent’s Enwayaang Building, an Anishinaabek word meaning “the way we speak together.”
Indigenous knowledge is central to our spirit and influences our programming and collaborations with departments in our collegiate community, including the First Peoples House of Learning.
About The Space
As our newest college on campus, Gzowski has expanded accessibility and air conditioning for a comfortable conference experience. The building offers premium single rooms, paired by private washrooms shared with one other conference guest. We will also be offering rooms with a private bathroom for our guests who are looking for more privacy, spaces are limited for these rooms.
Your single room will contain a double bed, desk, desk lamp, desk chair, bedside table, bookshelf, and closet. Wi-Fi and laundry facilities are available for your use during your stay.
Each of the common spaces are equipped with TVs, sofas and kitchenettes, so you can spend time socializing, networking and making new connections between events.
