Studying Late Into the Night

We've all been there. Last minute study session or maybe you've just really gotten into the rhythm of things and have lost track of time. You're one of the last people on campus and finally decide it's time to wrap things up and head home. You hear the last wave of summer bugs as they greet you goodnight.

From the Cafeteria to the Classroom

Home of Black Excellence @ McMaster

Black Excellence at McMaster is a soundwalk that guides listeners through a tour of strong sites across campus where Black culture, resilience, and community thrive. On each site, points of interest mark locations important to Black students—from vibrant events such as the celebratory BSSC cookout and Black History Month basketball games to moments of reflection in serene gardens to celebratory events such as Black Grad. With narrative, background noise, and arrangement, the walk inspires the feeling of belongingness and superiority that defines these locations. This soundwalk is more than a guided tour; it is an audio journey that exalts tradition, joy, and the resilience of community at McMaster University.

It is common but indispensable place, people may not have too much thoughts for them, but it's a good chance to listen their stories.
