A message from Lesley Cormack, Deputy Vice-Chancellor and Principal, UBC Okanagan
Dear colleagues,
As Asian Heritage Month draws to a close, I am profoundly grateful for the opportunity to recognize the many achievements and contributions of Canadians of Asian descent and to explore the rich diversity of Asian heritage in our country. Many of these cultures are part of our campus community, bringing together unique perspectives and lived experiences that elevate the way we teach, learn and research.
Our final event, the UBC Okanagan Artist Showcase, will take place tomorrow on May 26, at 12 p.m. I encourage you to attend and see the extraordinary artistic talent and artwork of our students and faculty inspired by Asian culture.
