Recognizing Indigenous Academic Achievement

RRC Polytech is proud to host its 24th annual Pow Wow to recognize the achievements of Indigenous students. Advancing Indigenous achievement is a key priority at Red River College Polytechnic, and the College recognizes the important role it plays in supporting reconciliation efforts in the province.

Please join us to celebrate our students as we send them off on their continued journeys to success. The annual Pow Wow gives our community the opportunity to dance, drum, sing, eat, connect, and participate in Ceremony.

All Indigenous students graduating in 2024 are encouraged to join us to celebrate! Full-time, part-time, students that attend regional campuses, and students graduating in Fall 2024 are welcome to register and participate in Pow Wow.

Pow Wow Details

Date: Friday, May 3, 2024
Time: 10:00am – 4:30pm
Location: North Gym at the Notre Dame Campus

Stoles

A stole is an academic regalia sash that is draped over the shoulders to denote academic achievement. The stole was designed with symbols for The Seven Sacred Teachings, a set of teachings on human conduct towards others. While we recognize that not all First Nations, Métis and Inuit cultures and histories recognize The Seven Sacred Teachings, our intention is to be as inclusive as possible. The stole also includes a cart to represent Métis and a seal symbol to represent Inuit culture.

Graduates can pick up their stoles when they sign in at the event registration table.
