Baagwating Indigenous Student Centre
About Baagwating Indigenous Student Centre
The Baagwating Indigenous Student Centre is home to Indigenous Education and Cultural Services (IECS) offered by the university’s Office of Student Life. Its distinctive design incorporates Indigenous and natural elements.
The centre creates an environment that supports personal and cultural growth and academic success. It complements the IECS services offered at Shawenjigewining Hall, at the north Oshawa campus. These spaces serve as a home away from home for our Indigenous students and provide all students the opportunity to connect with Indigenous culture and resources.
The meaning of Baagwating
Baagwating is Anishinaabemowin (Ojibwe word) for Place of Shallow Waters. The student centre is named in recognition of the Baagwating Community Association and Mississauga of Scugog Island for their financial contribution and generosity to the creation of this space for the campus community and Indigenous community members.
