Alexander MacLeod - Associate Professor, English and Atlantic Canada Studies
A Giller-nominated short-story writer, Dr. MacLeod’s work is focused on what being from Atlantic Canada means. and his students examine how Atlantic Canada’s understanding of itself, its past, and its future is built on the stories we tell—and those we're told—about this region.
