Homecoming: Shelagh Rogers returns to Queen’s University as Chancellor

Her laugh makes frequent guest appearances, and her enthusiasm and compassion never leave the room.

Listening to Shelagh, it feels like the most natural thing in the world that she’s made a life out of stories—sharing her own, exploring those of others and making a concerted effort to uncover the truth behind Canada’s.
