Jennifer Keeping Biography

Jennifer Keeping began her academic career at Cape Breton University in 1995 where she enrolled in the Bachelor of Arts program. Faculty, administration and students remember her as an exceptional individual, not because she was visually challenged, but because of the unique way in which she blended two critical elements: outstanding people skills and a sophisticated appreciation for the flexibility and innovation required to be successful in a post-secondary learning environment.

Awarded her degree posthumously in 2001, Jennifer's determination and drive in the face of great challenges has been a source of inspiration to all who knew her.
