Land Acknowledgements
- WWU SFSS Example: We acknowledge that we are occupying the traditional lands of the Lummi and Nooksack peoples. The people of this land have evolved since time immemorial with the plants, animals, and landscapes that we now share. Please take some time to reflect on how this land has served you and tread forward keeping in mind the loss that has allowed that to happen.
