The Thanatology Club (fondly called Than Club) is the official academic club for the King’s Thanatology program. Than Club is open to any King’s, Western and affiliate students interested in topics around death, dying, bereavement, grief, and loss/non-death loss (we also often enjoy fun “spooky” stuff, like skulls or grim reapers!) These topics can be considered extremely taboo in society but play huge roles in our lives, and Than Club hopes to open conversations around these subjects and learn more about the multitude of ways we experience them in our lives and careers. Previous meetings have included visiting Denning’s Funeral Home in Strathroy, a presentation by Western’s Body Bequeathal Program (laymen’s terms: donating your body to science), arts and crafts meetings to relax and have fun, death cafes, informational presentation by Spiritualists and mediums, game nights and many other things. This year the club is hoping to host interesting guest speakers and discussions using Zoom, online game nights or craft nights, maybe even a Netflix Watch Party or two!
