  • BRIEF: U of S aboriginal students asked to self-identify

    By February 14, 2012

    The Office of the President is asking University of Saskatchewan aboriginal students to officially identity as such online through PAWS in order to get a better sense of the aboriginal student population.

    In an email sent to all students Feb. 2, Joan Greyeyes, the president’s special advisor on aboriginal initiatives, said that having accurate knowledge of the number of aboriginal students will help provide “high-quality learning opportunities that are responsive, flexible and accessible” to students of aboriginal heritage. She added that it will also help guide the university’s decisions concerning academic programming, student supports and scholarships.
