Why should students join this club? If you are a student who identifies as Indigenous, you would have an opportunity to be around folks with shared experiences and identities. If you are non-Indigenous, joining the club provides opportunities to learn about the culture and be in solidarity. Any which way, we welcome all and are a fun group to be around! 

Who is the club advisor? Katie Ackley, [email protected].
