Land Acknowledgment

The Environmental Studies Program at ÌÇÐÄvlog¹ÙÍø recognizes our collective responsibility to acknowledge our colonial history. Our campus sits on the unceded traditional lands of the Onyota’a:ká: known as the People of the Upright Stone and Oneida Indian Nation of New York. Please take a moment to consider the many legacies of violence, displacement, migration, and settlement that bring us here today. Join us in our commitment to honor the Oneida Nation and value the importance of Indigenous voices and wisdom as we confront climate change and environmental injustice.
