Cultural Spaces on Campus
We offer culturally safe spaces for students on campus. Access support and use the Indigenous Student Service lounges to study, take a well-deserved break, or visit with friends. We are proud to have Learning Lodges at all of our campuses, which are used in academic and non-academic programming. The Learning Lodges are always available to Indigenous students.
