VIU Future Students

We asked our graduates “What advice would you give future VIU students starting their journey”

Happy Pride Month, Nanaimo and VIU! 
 
June is a time to celebrate the strength and diversity of our 2SLGBTQIA+ community, while reaffirming our commitment to creating safe, inclusive spaces where everyone belongs. Pride is a celebration, but it’s also a reminder of the ongoing work to break down barriers.
 
A huge thank you to VIU’s Positive Space Alliance for everything they do to foster allyship and connection year-round. Let’s keep working together to ensure everyone is seen, heard, and celebrated for exactly who they are.
