The Office for Aboriginal Peoples is delighted to share our on-line, newsletter "Syetsem" with you! A big thanks to Gary George (Editor) for bringing this great idea forward and has been active since 2018! "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," but not always on the 2nd and 4th Friday of each month.

A now defunct newsletter was originally in existence from 2009 to 2016 at the former SFU First Nations Student Centre (now Indigenous Student Centre), and that was called "Tuzz," which is a Wet'suwet'en term for "talking stick" or "walking cane." 

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 newsletter and we will be looking forward to any submissions and contributions that you may like to share in future editions!

Best wishes!
