Memorial announces launch of new Labrador Campus

Memorial University has announced that the Labrador Institute will be transitioning into a full academic campus. This spring, the university will be moving into its new space in Happy Valley-Goose Bay. The new Labrador Campus of Memorial University will give students in Labrador the opportunity to pursue education while remaining in their communities, and Memorial and the Innu Nation will work together to provide education that is relevant for Innu individuals. Students will begin studying at the Labrador Campus in Fall 2022. “[H]aving a campus in Labrador will also strengthen relationships with Indigenous Peoples in Labrador,” said Memorial VP (Indigenous) Catharyn Andersen. “It will also position the School of Arctic and Subarctic Studies to be a true leader for Indigenization.” Memorial| NTV| Saltwire (Subscription) Note: Archived stories may contain dead links or be missing source links.
