BCcampus News November 27, 2019 Who We Are is How We Lead"By increasing awareness of and access to VR experiences, these students can extend their learning in natural sciences beyond the traditional classroom." For thousands of years the səl̓ilwətaɁɬ təməxʷ (Tsleil-Waututh), Skwxwú7mesh-ulh Temíx̱w (Squamish), W̱SÁNEĆ, and the Songhees Nation of the Lək̓ʷəŋən (Lekwungen) Peoples have walked gently on the unceded territories where we now live, work, and play. We are committed to building relationships with the first peoples here, one based in honour and respect, and we thank them for their hospitality. #TeamBCcampusLast week we enjoyed our team retreat (and a peek behind the scenes) at the Royal BC Museum to focus on where we put our energy, what's coming next, and celebrating where we are now!
