During this time, staff and students will have the opportunity to get to know each other. The students will have time to become familiar with the university and the city of Thunder Bay, if they are not already. The staff will assess the students academic needs through course work and diagnostic testing in order to implement a suitable program of studies with the students in the Fall Term. Orientation is expected to consist of remedial course work in mathematics, science, English, along with possible training in computers and study skills. The intent of the Program Orientation is to help students acquire the necessary information, skills, and self discipline required to be successful at the university. The orientation is for the benefit of the student and it is expected that they will provide input into the process. Specific Orientation Objectives - To assist in securing accommodation, day care and schools for children, if necessary. - To adjust to being a student at the university, as well as in the city. - To develop and improve learning skills. - To develop a good understanding of program policies as well as the policies of Lakehead University. 1. What other orientation objectives should be considered? 2. What activities, both academic and social, do you think would be beneficial to incorporate into the orientation? 3. Do you envisage problems in developing a program for a small group of students with varied backgrounds? That is, age difference, varied life and educational experiences, making the transition from northern communities, and gender. What ideas do you have to make it work? 4. In what ways should the University program connect with the student's bands/educational authority in order to help with financing decisions? 5. How does the counsellor maintain a connection with the student's community since it is important for the counsellor to be aware of problems, stresses, which might originate in the community? �COUNSELLING The Native Access Program in Engineering at Lakehead University expects to offer academic and social support to promote student success. Cowiselling, which may begin immediately following admission to the University, is expected to form a significant portion of a summer orientation program and be available lllltil the student graduates. The program expects to have a qualified co\lllSellor to assist students with personal and social adjustments. The counsellor will work with students to solve problems that may arise in all areas of their lives. Since we may attract students from northern communities we must identify, as best we can, the potential problems/concerns and establish a natural learning/co\lllSelling process to intercept and alleviate the fears and unknowns that can arise from students moving to a "large city", and into an University to study the demanding field of Engineering. 1. What adjustments will students have to make to be successful at the university? 2. What should be the role of the counsellor? Who else or what other groups in Thunder Bay can help? 3. What qualifications and personal traits do you feel our counsellor should have? In most cases the students will work hard, attend classes, complete assignments, participate in laboratories and projects, or in other words, fulfil the obligations of being a student. However there may · be a few students, for whatever reasons, who are reluctant to do what it takes to be successful in engineering. In most university programs such students merely fall by the side and ultimately fail. 1. Is this process suitable for access students? 2. If the program should have tougher rules and regulations than those of the university, what rules and regulations do you suggest? 3. Do you have practical suggestions, other than additional rules and regulations, that might be successful in rectifying any situation? 4. Are there certain conditions under which the student mtist leave the program in order that: a) the student does not jeopardize any future attempt in the program, or b) the student does not have a negative impact on other students? �SOCIAL AND CULTURAJ, IMPACI'S Floy Pepper, a member of the Creek tribe in Oklahoma who teaches at Rudolph Dreikurs Institute in Portland, Oregon, in a paper on social and cultural impacts on Native learning style and the implications for classroom practice, suggested that Native students are often: - skilled in non-verbal communication, - adept at processing visual and spacial information, - able to take a holistic approach to specific topics, - imaginative, - likely to learn through observation and practice, rather than discussion, - group-orientated, and - more comfortable in the informal setting that allows freedom of movement. 1. Do you agree with Pepper? What would you add or delete from the list? We need to be concerned about this issued because while the Native students for the most part will be in their own groups initially, they will ultimately join the regular student body. Can you suggest some appropriate teaching strategies that can be used for the instruction of Native students who will be attending university? 2. ' What are some of the social/cultural factors that might influence the students learning that instructors of these students should know? �THE.SERIOUS LACK OF NATIVE ENGINEERS The School of Engineering at Lakehead University is unaware of the exact number of Native engineers in Canada However in a period close to twenty years, only two Native engineers have graduated from La.kehead University, and comparable numbers are estimated from other universities. Whether the total number is twenty-five, fifty, or a hundred, it is still too low. 1. Will access programs such as that proposed for La.kehead University be adequate to improve the situation? What else might be required? 2. Why do many Native students tend to choose career paths other than Engineering at postsecondary institutions? 3. What common perceptions might the general Native community have in regards to engineering? 4. Do Native students tend to "shy" away from mathematics and science? 5. What level of mathematics do most students attain in high schools? If it is not University Entrance, what suggestions can be made to encourage students to take these courses? 6. What role might the University or any other organization play to encourage students to prepare themselves for and then possibly embark on an engineering career? We must have your help on this issue so that the recruitment/selection processes can encourage future students. � Dublin Core The Dublin Core metadata element set is common to all Omeka records, including items, files, and collections.

The university's first experience in programming specifically addressed to Native students began twenty years ago with the introduction of the Native Teacher Education Program. The university's ongoing commitment to Native education is stressed in its Academic Plan (1987) where a course of action to increase activities related to Native peoples is outlined as part of the regional mandate of the university. It was noted that this should be done in close cooperation and with the advice of Native groups. This commitment was reinforced further when, in response to the Academic Plan recommendation, a Native Studies Study Group was formed to analyze and coordinate present activities and to propose new ones. In its Native Studies Study Group Report (May, I 989), the Study Group noted the following: "A strong emphasis on service to Native people and Native communities would be a notable and worthwhile contribut.i on by Lakehead University to the welfare of Northwestern Ontari9 and to its own efforts to establish a distinguished and characteristic specialization. The present state of interest and activity in Native studies and matters is primarily the result of (individual) faculty and departmental initiatives. A serious intent by Lakehead University to make Native studies and serving Native interests an intrinsic part of its operations will require concrete and sustained actions by the university as an ins ti tu tion. The Native Studies Study Group set four priorities ........ having to do with the identification of Native needs and interests through consultations with Native people, developing a Native Students Access Program, promoting native interests on campus, and enhancing research and programs in Native Studies at the university." �2 Although modest improvements have been seen in recent years in the participation rate of Natives in higher education, it is still considerably lower than the overall average for the general population. The problem is systemic and must be dealt with on a system-wide basis. Until participation rates for Native students approximate that of the general population, innovative solutions must be found to encourage Native students to see higher education as an attainable goal and to provide the necessary support for success once they are here. It is our wish to continue working in partnership with the Native community to improve programming, both academic and support, for Native stude_nts and to work toward increasing the participation rate and success of Native students in higher education. The ideas we are presenting today come to a large extent from the efforts of the Study Group and follow from the recommendations of its first report. With the implementation of the Native Education Strategy by the Ministry of Colleges and Universities, the university sees an opportunity to move from a planning phase to an implementation stage and further enhance the value of the university to our Native students. The proposal that follows would see the establishment of a School for Native Studies to house the Academic Department of Native Studies and the Department of Native Support Services. The concept is discussed in greater detail in the report. �3 THE SCHOOL FOR NATIVE STUDIES As stated earlier, the concept of a School of Native Studies was first proposed in the 1987 Academic Plan and reinforced by the Native Studies Study Group. At that time the idea was posed that such a structure would co-ordinate and promote instructional and research activities by faculty and educational services for Native students. Today, the concept of a School of Native Studies has been extended to mean a centre for Native activities, both academic and support. Special professional programs such as Native N1:1rsing, Education and possibly Engineering would remain in those schools but with support services and community liaison services provided by the School would be available to all Native students regardless of the program of enrolment. The School of Native Studies would be comprised of two departments: an academic department to house academic and research programs and a support services department where a full range of services such as social, personal and career counselling, orientation, and Native student advocacy would be provided. The organizational structure proposed is presented in Table 1. �~ Table ~ NATIVE ADVISORY COMMITTEE J Faculty of Arts and Science [ Dept. of Native Studies - B.A. (Native Community Development) - B.A. (Native Studies Program (double major) School of Native Studies (or appropriate title) l Native Support Services Native Counselling & Community Liaison Officer Housing - Native Access Program - Native Studies Certificate - Native Studies Minor Program Specific Advisory Committees ~ Other Native Programs & Students throughout the University 9 M i}q1 1 lO �5 DEPARTMENT OF NATIVE STUDIES The academic Department of Native Studies would be a newly constituted department in the Faculty of Arts and Science. In this department a number of Native programs are possible. Native Access A program already implemented on a trial basis is a general Na ti ve Access Program. The Access Program is modelled after the very successful Native Nurses Entry Program and is intended to facilitate entry into university for individuals who do not have the necessary preparation for university admission. The program is a bridging year of special courses to provide students with the skills to begin a successful academic career. The Access Program f ea tu res specialized recruitment and admission procedures, program orientation and personal counselling, a curriculum that addresses deficiencies in preparation, tutoring services for academic courses, counselling in the area of financial assistance, and social and cultural support systems. Native Studies Programs By using an interdisciplinary approach to teaching Native Studies, the expertise of several academic departments could be drawn together to build a major in Native Studies. A certificate and a minor program could be offered as well using the same approach. Plans in this area are described further in the report by the Native Studies Study Group subcommittee on Academic Programming. Community Development Program Another approach being investigated follows from a proposal made by the �6 Animkee group that suggested that the university offer a program in Native Community Development. The intent of the community development program is to provide Natives with the skills and education needed in their self-government initiatives and the development of community and resources. Such a program would be subject to the system-wide university program approvals process. It would require extensive planning and would be subject to rigorous scrutiny both internally and system-wide on curriculum, academic quality, societal need, student demand and many other points. �7 SUPPORT SERVICES DEPARTMENT A significant element in the provision of special programs to minority students is the support system that must be in place to assist students in making the transition to a successful academic life. For this reason the university operates the Native Support Services Office. Students receive academic, personal and financial counselling as well as cultural support and understanding. Assistance is provided for academic course work and study skills. Tutors are provided through interface with the Learning Assistance Centre and a Native peer tutor system is in place. The office is a centre of Native student activity on campus and has an ambitious program of social and cultural events. Cultural support would be enhanced with a Elder in Residence program to provide the support of an Elder on a regularly-scheduled basis. The Native Support Services Office is staffed year round because of summer programs such as Native Languages and the number of students participating in a variety of summer courses. Additionally, it is proposed to enhance the Native support service function with a Native Counsellor and Community Liaison Officer and a Native housing officer. Native Counsellor and Community Liaison Officer Lakehead University recognizes that in order to be successful in our endeavours to encourage greater participation by Native students, we must reach out to the community to deliver the message that higher education is an option for Native Canadians and to communicate the range of programs available. Our belief is that if we target Native students more direcdy we can increase the number who will view university education as a viable al tern a ti ve. In the report Native Student Drop-Out in Ontario Schools (I 990), it was noted that northern Native students are in general at greater risk of dropping out than are their �8 southern counterparts. "There are particular geographical, social, economic, educational, and historical factors present in northern Ontario which both singly and together mitigate again a northern Native student experiencing the same chances of academic success as his or her southern counterpart". Factors contributing to this situation include low expectations due to a number of negative factors such as poor self esteem, low expectations from the education system, from their communities and families, the lack of positive Native role models and, most important, a feeling that their communities lack many of the employment opportunities that would make the struggle and sacrifices to graduate worthwhile. The reports went on to say that "There was a high degree of agreement between Native and non-Native educators that Native dropouts lacked clear plans. Generally, these educators thought that the main reasons for this dearth of planning could be attributed to cultural factors, lack of role models, and to a lack of career counselling in both elementary and secondary schools". For these very compelling reason we propose to establish the position of Native Counselling and Community Liaison Officer who will be responsible for meeting directly with Native students, teachers, families and community leaders. As a Native person, the counsellor will present a positive role model who understands and is sensitive to the needs of these students. The counsellor will provide information to potential students, both mature students and high school students, guidance teachers, families and community leaders. Information on programs, facilities, career opportunities, support services at the university and information on the City of Thunder Bay would be communicated. The Liaison Officer would play the extremely valuable role of endeavouring to encourage greater participation in university programs, would coordinate efforts to present information on programs at the university that are specifically addressed to Native students as well as provide information about regular programming that is accessible to Native students. Liaison with university departments would take place as well in order to see that students are placed in programs that best suit their needs. �9 The geographic area targeted will be northern Ontario with particular emphasis on northwestern Ontario. Emphasis will be on visiting outlying and remote areas where direct con tact is most needed. Na ti ve specific programs will be stressed as will the fact that all university programs are accessible to Native students. Counselling on the accessibility of education using Distance Education technology and off-campus on-site delivery through Continuing Education also will be provided. Promoting university programs and recruiting in the target groups will result in reaching the goal of more Native students accessing university education. Native Housing Support Many of our Native students come from small, remote northern communities and are attempting to live for the first time in a larger urban city. Finding suitable accommodation is a major hurdle that Native students encounter in making the transition to an urban university setting. As well, many of our Native students are mature students with families and these students have an even more difficult time finding suitable and reasonably priced accommodation. In order to assist these students in the transition, it is proposed that a parttime appointment be made to provide support to students in their search for accommodation and to act as an advocate for Native housing concerns. �IO STAFFING REQUIREMENTS Implementation of this plan would require the following staffing arrangement: Full time appointments: Senior faculty appointment for Native Studies and chair of the School. Faculty appointment for Native Access. Co-ordinator of Native Support Services. Native Counsellor and Community Liaison Officer. Secretarial Support Personnel (2) Part-time appointments: Tutors Native Housing Officer For the most part, these are either new or re-defined appointments based on role and funding considerations. The university currently has a Co-ordinator of Native Support Services and secretary in the Native Support Services Offices. These positions are funded from a grant that is being phased out.

A variety of campus clubs bring students together on the basis of shared interests and goals. Many clubs are involved with local and national endeavours in addition to serving the immediate needs of their members.

Dances and concerts, showcasing national and regional talent, are held regularly. A library housing 500,000 volumes, modern laboratories, extensive research facilities, and lecture rooms of all sizes support the academic activities of the University. In deference to our northernly location, many of the buildings are connected by ground tunnel for comfortable walking during inclement weather.
