Integrity, Professionalism, Collegiality, is Law Faculty’s Welcome Message for First-Year Law Students

September 7, 2018 —

One-hundred and four years later, first-year law students spent their Orientation week at Robson Hall learning the Seven Sacred Teachings from a Metis Elder, smudging with sage, sharing in a Water Ceremony, learning facts about Indian Residential Schools from Truth and Reconciliation Commission staff, and helping to set up a tipi painted by members of the law student body on the grounds of the University of Manitoba campus.
