Stephanie Inglis is a linguist who has been a professor at Cape Breton 카지노게임사이트 since 1986. She was integral in creating the first Native Studies courses in the university and has had a hand in the successful integration of Indigenous knowledge into curricula for the last three decades. She is the director of the Mi카지노 게임 컬렉션™kmaw Language Lab, responsible for engaging the local Mi카지노 게임 컬렉션™kmaq communities with a variety of ongoing projects
In her lecture, Inglis explained that when she started working at Cape Breton 카지노게임사이트 in the late 1980s, there were only one or two university-level courses across Canada that focused on Indigenous Peoples. At Cape Breton 카지노게임사이트, there were none. Throughout her lecture, she discussed her experiences creating a Native Studies program at Cape Breton 카지노게임사이트, including her struggle against the idea that it was not a valid topic for academic settings. By 2012, Inglis카지노 게임 컬렉션™ work had contributed to the establishment of a full degree program in Mi카지노 게임 컬렉션™kmaq studies and a growing number of Indigenous students, from a handful to more than 10% of the undergraduate student body. Inglis described the processes that were employed by Cape Breton 카지노게임사이트 to ensure this success and described the strategies Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션™s could employ to continue their Indigenization. Her talk was of particular note because it came just a few weeks after the first Indigenous language courses 카지노 게임 컬렉션“ Mohawk and Inuktitut 카지노 게임 컬렉션“ commenced at Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션™s.
Inglis카지노 게임 컬렉션™ lecture was jointly funded with the Brockington Visitorship at Queen카지노 게임 컬렉션™s.
