Join an ongoing campus space where Indigenous scholars – and those who focus on Indigenous issues – can share ideas in an environment that truly recognizes Indigenous knowledge and its importance. The Indigenous Studies Working Group (ISWG) is a non-competitive and dialogical space where Indigenous knowledge serves to decolonize the academy and ourselves. ISWG meets the first and third friday of the month from 12:00 – 1:30 PM EDT/EST in a hybrid format. Stay posted for more information on our in-person safety and virtual participation plans.
