BA Indigenous Studies Student

Where I studied previously
Fleming College 

Why I chose Trent
It has arguably the best Indigenous Studies program, and it's close to home. 

My favourite place on campus
Everything in the Enwayaang building feels comfortable and welcoming. 

What I like to do outside of Academics 
Hang with my husband and kids, make Ribbon Skirts.

My thoughts on the challenges encountered by new transfer students
Without the prep that often occurs at high school it can be hard to find things at first, they might not have or remember some academic things. 

A service, resource, or tool that helped me navigate my first year or first semester
I cannot stress enough how helpful The Bridge program was. It was intensive but worth the work, it prepared me for University work and introduced me to all of the resources available. 

My one piece of advice for new transfer students
Take The Bridge course.
