N’it, Tan’si, Oki, Aaniin, Wachiya, She:gon, Kwe, Hello!
Together the Yeates School of Graduate Studies (YSGS) and the Office of Aboriginal Initiatives are committed to providing supports for Indigenous graduate students. One of the most important factors in graduate success is relationship building, so YSGS welcomes you to join an Indigenous graduate student circle to build community, develop leadership skills and foster institutional change.
To open the circle, the Office of the Vice-Provost and Dean, YSGS, invites all Aboriginal and international Indigenous students, including recent alumni, to attend a luncheon on Monday, Jan. 21, 12-1 p.m. in JOR-1402.
We hope to socialize over a meal and discuss the ways in which YSGS can support the needs of Aboriginal and Indigenous graduate students at Ryerson. If you cannot attend, feel free to email Riley Kucheran at riley.kucheran@torontomu.ca to arrange an alternative time.
Date: Monday, January 21
Time: 12:00pm – 1:00pm
Location: JOR 1402
Please (google form) RSVP here (external link) and indicate if you have accomodation and/or dietary needs
