for Aboriginal Peoples is delighted to share our new and inaugural "Syetsem" On-line Newsletter with you! A big thanks to Gary George (Editor) for bringing this great idea forward! "Syetsem" is a Coast Salish term which refers to the sharing of "news, reports, and recent history" and will be sent on a bi-monthly basis, usually the 2nd and 4th Friday of each month. The newsletter will feature Indigenous related stories, events, activities, and information. If you have any information you'd like to share with the broader S.F.U. community, and alumnus, you may forward your story idea to the link provided below on this page. We hope you enjoy our inaugural newsletter and we will be looking forward to any submissions and contributions that you may like to share in future editions!<br> <br> Best wishes, Ron Johnston</p> <h3>Do you have a news story? <a href="https://www.surveymonkey.ca/r/8D6TQBM" target="_blank"><b>Submit here</b></a></h3> <h3><b>I wish to be added to Syetsem general distribution list</b>: <a href="https://secure.campaigner.com/CSB/Public/Form.aspx?fid=1725110" target="_blank"><b>Click here</b></a></h3> </div></div> </div> <div class="below-main inherited-parsys"> </div> </section> <footer> <ul> <li><a href="/main/admission.html">Admission</a></li> <li><a href="/main/programs.html">Programs</a></li> <li><a href="/main/learning.html">Learning</a></li> <li><a href="/main/research-at-sfu.html">Research</a></li> <li><a href="/main/sfu-community.html">Community</a></li> <li><a href="/main/about.html">About</a></li> </ul> <ul> <li><a href="/main/campuses/maps.html">Maps + directions</a></li> <li><a href="http://www.lib.sfu.ca/">Library</a></li> <li><a href="/calendar">Academic Calendar</a></li> <li><a href="https://www.sfu.ca/srs/campus-safety-security/traffic-safety/road-report.html">Road Report</a></li> <li><a href="http://www.sfu.ca/advancement">Give to SFU</a></li> <li><a href="http://www.sfu.ca/emergency">Emergency Information</a></li> </ul> <ul> <li class="header"> Connect with us </li> <li> <div class="connect-with-us inherited-parsys"> <div class="parsys"> <div class="text parbase section"> <div class=""> <p><a href="https://www.facebook.com/simonfraseruniversity">Facebook</a><br><a href="https://twitter.com/SFU">Twitter</a><br><a href="http://www.youtube.com/user/SFUNews">YouTube</a></p> </div></div> </div> </div> </li> </ul> <ul> <li class="header"> <a href="/aboriginalpeoples/contact.html">Contact us</a> </li> <li> <div class="contact-us inherited-parsys"> <div class="parsys"> <div class="text parbase section"> <div class=""> <address>8888 University Drive<br> Burnaby, B.C.<br> Canada V5A 1S6</address> </div></div> </div> </div> </li> </ul> <ul> <li> <div class="footer-right inherited-parsys"> </div> </li> <li><a href="/contact/terms-conditions.html">Terms and conditions</a></li> <li><a href="/contact/terms-conditions/privacy.html">Privacy policy</a></li> <li>© Simon Fraser University</li> </ul> </footer> </div> <!-- end page-content --> </div> <!-- end page --> </div> <!-- end container --> <script src="/etc/designs/clf/clientlibs/pack/footer.scripts.min.js"></script> <script src="/etc/designs/sfu/clientlibs/toggleFormContent.min.js"></script> </body> </html>
