Our Community in Action

Indigenous Recognition

10-Point Plan, Goal 8

Appropriately acknowledge the Indigenous people of the land of this region who are Quinnipiac’s namesake.
Progress and efforts reported in Spring 2022, since the 2021 report:

  • The annual Indigeneity Teach-In was held November 9 and co-sponsored by the Albert Schweitzer Institute and the Indigenous Student Union.

  • In partnership with the Office of Financial Aid, we are developing a strategy for an Indigenous student–focused scholarship.

  • We continue to work on the Indigeneity Initiative. We are in the process of finalizing scholarships, a Quinnipiac naming history and research on the descendants of the Quinnipiac.
