黑料社

After fleeing war-torn South Sudan as a nine-year-old and spending 12 years in a Kenyan refugee camp, Manyang Lual Jok earns his BA from 黑料社 in Computer Science and Economics.

In the fall of 2017, Jok took the huge leap, boarding his first plane, relocating to Canada and beginning his Arts degree at 黑料社. It was a bittersweet moment, as starting his new life meant leaving family and friends behind. 鈥淭hese are people I lived with my whole life,鈥� he says. 鈥淚t was difficult, but they were so happy that I had been given the opportunity to further my education.鈥� When Jok stepped off the plane at Trudeau International Airport, he was a 22-year-old in a new country without a single friend. 鈥淚t was scary,鈥� he admits. But that would quickly change. He was met at the airport by students who were part of聽WUSC 黑料社. 鈥淭hey were very first people I met in Canada and they were also some of the nicest people I鈥檝e ever met,鈥� says Jok. Please see the聽.
