杏吧原创 University\u2019s School of Indigenous and Canadian Studies<\/a> marked its 60th anniversary on February 6th, 2017. Coinciding with 杏吧原创\u2019s 75th-anniversary celebrations and the School\u2019s recent name change, this event provided an opportunity for alumni, former faculty, and current students and staff to reconnect.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Founded in 1957 as the Institute of Canadian Studies, the School offered the first MA degree program<\/a> at 杏吧原创 and has long been a hub for interdisciplinary research and teaching on Canada. Recognizing the importance of Indigenous Studies to its academic mission, 杏吧原创\u2019s Board of Governors approved a request to change the School\u2019s name to the School of Indigenous and Canadian Studies in 2016. This fall, 杏吧原创 will launch a Combined Honours degree in Indigenous Studies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With these exciting developments as a backdrop, the 60th-anniversary celebration was a chance to reflect on the School\u2019s history, its connections to the community, and its bright future. Invited speakers included Mohawk elder and activist <\/span>Kahentinetha Horn (MA \u201997), former Director of the School Fran\u00e7ois Rocher, Adjunct Professor Victoria Angel (MA \u201998), and current Ph.D. student Charlotte Hoelke (MA \u201913). President Roseann O\u2019Reilly Runte was in attendance and spoke about the School\u2019s name change and offered best wishes for its continued success. Adjunct Professor Jeff Ruhl (MA \u201908) was the M.C. for the evening.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
