Seven Generations Education Institute has unveiled the new name for its main campus: Rainy Lake Campus. The institute renamed the campus following SGEI Board meetings discussing the importance of Indigenous self-determination. The campus is built on Agency One lands, which are held in common by the Agency One First Nations of Couchiching, Mitaanjigamiing, Naicatchewenin, and Nigigoonsiminikaaning. “By referring to our building as the Rainy Lake Campus, we’re not only paying homage to the beautiful Rainy Lake, we’re also honouring the fact that we are sitting on Agency One lands,” said SGEI CEO Brent Tookenay.
