Our Collegial Model – a timely explanation

Recently, we have heard some members of the University administration describe the Capilano University Collegial Model (Articles 2.5 to 2.8) as if it is no more than a simple practice of being civil to each other.

We will be exploring this further in upcoming workshops.

The CFA's work takes place on the sovereign and unceded homelands of the xʷməθkʷəỷəm (Musqueam), 'shíshálh (Sechelt), Sḵwx̱wú7mesh (Squamish), and SəỈílwətaʔ/Selilwitulh (Tsleil-Waututh) Nations.

The CFA honours the sacred relationships to land, waterways, and the natural world of the Host Nations since time immemorial. The CFA stands in solidarity with Indigenous struggles for justice and liberation in face of ongoing attempted genocide, colonial oppression, and occupation.

This land acknowledgment was articulated by the CFA's Indigenous Faculty Committee.
