The Globe and Mail has featured Effusion a Cappella in an article called “It’s an extracurricular wonderland at Canadian universities“. Click on the image below to check out Effusion’s infamous SAUCE photo on the Globe and Mail website, as well as an interview with our very own Victoria Saigle!
After a beautiful retreat at Hannah’s farm in Picton, ON last weekend, we’ve got great pictures of this year’s class of NEWBIES so it is our pleasure to finally announce their names to the world.
