The University of Regina’s Faculty of Graduate Studies and Research (FGSR) has given one of its graduate student awards a makeover. Formerly known as the FGSR Aboriginal Graduate Awards Program Scholarship the new award will now be called Kaskitomasowak, Cree for ‘they earned it.’ “Along with Emily Grafton, the Executive Lead, Indigenization, we wanted the award to be more meaningful to our students,” says Dr. Thomas Bredohl, dean of FGSR. “To achieve this, we asked Life Speaker Noel Starblanket to help with the changes and after holding a ceremony that included prayers and songs, he received the name, Kaskitomasowak.”
