Universities are not just schools. They're also communities, and today's guest understands that deeply.
Robin Jones-Stadelbauer (BA '12, BA '22) decided to study social development because she wanted to work with Indigenous communities, like the one she'd grown up in.
But her time as a student was difficult. She felt disconnected and isolated from the her Indigenous culture. Eventually, she decided to take a break and moved home.
Later, Robin returned to Waterloo as a staff member, and then began taking classes on top of her full-time job. Slowly, two courses per term, she finished her degree. And today, just like she'd hoped, she works with Indigenous folks … at the University of Waterloo. Robin joins the podcast to share her career journey and tell us about the work happening in the Indigenous Relations Office, including the new Indigenous Alumni Group.
