A list of the institution level sustainability learning outcomes:

St. Lawrence College has adopted Indigenous Learning Outcomes to incorporate Indigenous knowledge and understanding into program curricula. The goal is that every student - Indigenous and non-Indigenous - will graduate with the knowledge and understanding of these seven learning outcomes:



  • Relate principles of Indigenous knowledge to career field

  • Analyze the impact of colonialism on Indigenous communities

  • Explain the relationship between land and identity within Indigenous societies

  • Compare Indigenous and Canadian perceptions of inclusion and diversity

  • Analyze racism in relation to Indigenous peoples

  • Generate strategies for reconciling Indigenous and Canadian relations

  • Formulate approaches for engaging Indigenous community partners


The formal adoption of these protocols means that the college can move forward in embedding Indigenous Ways of Knowing and Being into its programs and courses and it will empower faculty to build them into the classroom.
