Home away from home... per se
![](http://100.ubc.ca/wp-content/uploads/2017/07/raised-hands-533x533.jpg)
Please allow me to honor and acknowledge my completion of 2 degrees on the unceded, traditional Coast Salish territories of the Musqueam people. I am Coast Salish, belonging to the Tla'amin Nation. I relish my experiences as both undergraduate and graduate student of UBC. I was a part of the First Nations House of Learning developments in the early 1990s. I thus returned to enjoy the 'home away from home' experience again, when I completed a Master's in Indigenous Pedagogies. Blessings!
