Kathy O’FlynnMagee 

Kathy O’Flynn-Magee is an Associate Professor of Teaching Emeritus at the University of British Columbia (UBC) in Vancouver, BC. In 2016, Kathy initiated a student-faculty partnership to explore bullying in nursing education. Since that time, the CRAB (Cognitive Rehearsal to Address bullying in Nursing Education) team has used arts-based methods to explore the issue. The team created a graphic novella in 2020 and have just completed a series of choose-your own adventure style vignettes that focus on several perspectives related to a bullying encounter in which a new graduate RN experiences bullying from a senior RN. The graphic novella is freely available at letsact.ca and the vignettes will be uploaded there in early 2022.

Cheryl Pollard 

Dr. Cheryl Pollard is an active scholar and researcher committed to the promotion of mental health and well being in people who personally live with mental illness and their caregivers. Cheryl is a member of the “Hallway Group” of the Mental Health Commission of Canada and is working on projects related to identifying and removing structural barriers. As a professor and Dean within the Faculty of Nursing – University of Regina, her passion about the scholarship of teaching and learning – specifically the impact of the relationships within the learning environment will bring more attention to the importance of being kind and compassionate to one another. The National League of Nursing has recognized Dr. Pollard’s enduring and substantial contributions to nursing education by inducting her as a Fellow into the Academy of Nursing Education. Being born and raised on the prairies by a Metis father and a non-indigenous mother, Cheryl was taught that it is an inherent responsibility to connect and contribute to making the circle, our community, and our world, better.
