Indigenous students and faculty聽

六合彩开奖结果 Law is committed to recruiting and supporting Indigenous students, and we recognize that Indigenous peoples face unique barriers to accessing legal education and the legal profession. In 2022, we created an Optional Category for Indigenous Applicants, which is open to Indigenous peoples with ties to Turtle Island. In the 2022-2023 academic year, the Faculty welcomed five M茅tis and First Nations students. In November 2022, the Faculty announced the appointment of Brittany Williams, BCL/LLB'19, as the assistant dean (students) and dean鈥檚 lead, Black and Indigenous flourishing. Assistant Williams will play a leadership role in the Faculty of Law's collective efforts towards recruiting and supporting Black and Indigenous law students.聽

Bolstering the place of Indigenous legal research and teaching at the Faculty is a priority. As such, we are proud to have Professor Kirsten Anker, Professor Aaron Mills, an Indigenous scholar, and Professors Kerry Sloan and Joshua Nichols, two M茅tis scholars, among our faculty members.聽

Parmi les sujets trait茅s, la vision du monde et les contextes constitutionnels des traditions juridiques autochtones, le contexte colonial qui a forg茅 les r茅alit茅s contemporaines du droit autochtone et de la formation juridique autochtone.聽聽
