strengthen partnerships with off-campus
community organizations and agencies
provide opportunities to support the
relationships between colleagues and
different on-campus departments
Indigenous students know what they need
to be supported along their journey from
application to graduation...listen to what
they say
ensure Indigenous students are always
compensated for their involvement in any
policy- or decision-making process
6. Be creative in
fostering
collaboration and
community with on-
campus and off-
campus
partnerships.
7. Listen to
Indigenous students
and ensure their
voices are centred in
decision-
making.
Final reflection:
It is very important that staff and faculty who work with Indigenous students
are also offered supports at this time. They are the very foundation of
Indigenous student success and wellbeing at every college and university.
Listen for their suggestions and, most importantly, follow their
recommendations.
