<p>Along with student services for all students,
Ontario colleges and universities have Indigenous
support centres. These centres may offer the
following:</p>
<ul class="list-disc px-4 space-y-2">
<li>Cultural activities</li>
<li>Occasional food and drop-in feasts</li>
<li>Elder support and guidance</li>
<li>Study tips (i.e., essay writing, managing time, meeting deadlines and meeting your personal goals)</li>
</ul>

<p class="font-bold text-red-500">Orientation Activities</p>
<ul class="list-disc px-8 space-y-2 py-2">
<li>College and university programs usually have orientations in September. This is a good place to meet new friends and familiarize yourself with the campus, programs and supports offered by your school.</li>
<li>Some orientations for Indigenous students are held off-campus in various urban centres.</li>
</ul>

<p class="font-medium inline text-xl">Participating in cultural events on my campus allowed
me to connect with these supports on a personal level
while also connecting to my culture. Connecting to my
culture was also important in ensuring my well-being
and creating the balance between traditional and
contemporary life that many of us Indigenous students
often are faced with.</p>
