Dozens of co-op students gathered in the Scotiabank Atrium Thursday, Jan. 11 to take part in the Co-op Speed Friending event.

Participants spent a series of two-minute intervals meeting new people while practising their small talk and networking skills in a safe environment. 

The students also spent the last part of the event meeting with the co-op education team, academic advisors and each other in a less formal setting.
