The Indigenous Circle represents Indigenous students at the Athabasca University Students’ Union, as well as the greater AU community and advises AUSU on various matters through the lens of Indigenous students.
We are looking for up to thirteen AU undergraduate students, who identify as Indigenous, to join the Indigenous Circle at AUSU.
Duties include attending Indigenous Circle meetings held at least four times a year, reviewing proposals and providing feedback, and reducing the barriers to education among AU’s Indigenous learners.
To join the Indigenous Circle, email your resume and a summary of why you are interested to Governance and Advocacy Coordinator Duncan Wojtaszek at governance@ausu.org. You must be a current AUSU member and self-identify as Indigenous to apply.
Happy Pride Week from your AU Students’ Union!
