The Roar

In this week's YIP, we have a quick chat about WUSC, (World University Services of Canada - Student Refugee Program) what it is and what we have to look forward to this coming Winter.

We asked faculty and returning students for any advice they would give to Sault College students listening to The Roar.

You'll soon hear that there is a core theme to all the answers that we received... Press play to find out what it is!

Welcome to The Roar,

September 30th, 2022, is dedicated to Truth and Reconciliation between Indigenous and non-Indigenous people living on Turtle Island, and recognizing the painful truths in Canada's past, that continue to impact Canada's present, and if left in the dark, Canada's future as well.

And while this episode may feel uncomfortable at times, and may make the listener uncomfortable; as Jonathan, one of our guests, mentions during the conversation, it is important that we get "comfortable with being uncomfortable". That we engage in these conversations to gain a better understanding of each other. We are many nations within one, with many cultures coming together under the umbrella of Canada, only through communication can we learn and grow successfully, together.

The resources mentioned in this episode, were sent out by Communications with the announcement for this episode, and have been loaded into the Success Hub on MS Teams. However, if you would like to have the resources emailed to you, please contact us at: [email protected].

Thank you.
