What does “Waasaabiidaasamose” mean?
“Waasaabiidaasamose” is Anishnawbemowin for “walks far”. The name comes from St. Lawrence College’s first Knowledge Keeper, Helena Neveu (Waasaabiidaasamose Kwe). Walks Far also speaks to the long and winding journey our Indigenous students and their families endure on their way to post-secondary education and beyond. We build a community that acknowledges this sentiment and strive to help students overcome their challenges and celebrate successes along their journey!
The Waasaabiidaasamose Indigenous Centre features:
- Indigenous resources
- Computers
- Areas for work and relaxation
- Craft sessions and other cultural activities
Indigenous Advisors are on-site in all three locations, and may also be reached by email or phone. To contact Jessie or Shirley by phone without long-distance charges, simply dial the campus number followed by the relevant extension.
