The Conrad Grebel Review, established in 1983, was an initiative of Conrad Grebel University College’s first Chaplain and Religious Studies Professor Walter Klaassen. In his introduction to the first issue, he located the journal at a critical moment of Mennonite self-assurance and noted that the time was ripe for a journal that looked at the present and towards the future.

The spring term at Conrad Grebel University College is often a time for construction or renovation projects. This year, as part of Grebel’s residence renewal projects, the College is completely replacing four of six residence washrooms, marking a major step forward in this capital project. 

On April 13, 2025, Conrad Grebel University College faculty, staff, students, and guests gathered for Grebel’s Convocation Service in the Humanities Theatre to celebrate the achievements of students who have connected with the College during their studies, either as an undergraduate student, graduate student, or resident.

This year’s Convocation marked a distinct cohort of graduating students. Many of them stepped foot into the College and started their post-secondary studies during the peak of a pandemic. While this world-changing event shaped Grebel students into the resilient people they are today, they had to experience adjusting to an entirely different lifestyle.
