A new chapter began this week at the University of Regina when the University's Aboriginal Advisory Circle met for the first time. The Advisory Circle was established this fall to help address the challenges Aboriginal students face while pursuing post-secondary education, and identify solutions to help ensure the campus is dedicated to and focused on meeting Aboriginal student needs. The Advisory Circle is comprised of Aboriginal faculty and staff who will provide recommendations directly to the President. Staff no
