In the fall of 2019 I was enrolled in a mixture of upper level Anthropology and English courses; including, Indigenous Peoples Comparative Perspectives, Ethnography of the Plateau, Children’s Literature, and Studies in Canadian Literature.
This was the last semester that I had to do to fill the requirements for a concentrated study in Anthropology. Making the Dean’s list, for me, signified a strong finish to the end of the first leg of my journey. It showed me that I did not sell myself short in the end. It is an amazing feeling to be recognized for your hard work; especially when you are not expecting it. I was not working hard to get these little recognitions, I just wanted to learn how to effect some change around me. This was a lesson for me. A lesson that said, I see you. That is what I want for my future students. To let them know that they are seen, and that they are appreciated.
