That’s one of the reasons I’m glad I came to SFU. Evie also joined the SFU Co-operative Education Program and completed a work term with Environment and Climate Change Canada mapping weather stations across Canada.Įvie made it a priority to get involved in the SFU student community and took on roles in the Geography Student Union, the Faculty’s FROSH events, mentorship program, SFU’s Tea Club, and SFU’s Women’s Centre. She applied her love of maps in her GIS certificate, and participated in the Hellenic Studies Field School in Greece to supplement her Archaeology minor. Fast forward – Evie is looking to create a career out of maps.Įvie has since completed an Associate’s Degree in Geography at Langara College and now a BA in Geography with an Archaeology minor and GIS certificate at SFU, and she’s not done yet.Īlong the way, Evie found ways to exercise her interests through her studies. In high school she was able to convince her drafting teacher to let her make a map for her final project. Evie Lapalme has always been drawn to maps.
