A statement from President Kevin Hall and AVP Indigenous Qwul’sih’yah’maht Robina Thomas on National Indigenous Peoples Day (June 21, 2021).

As of June 15, the second step of "BC’s Restart: A Plan to Bring Us Back Together" is now in effect. This step will have a number of impacts on university services including athletics and recreation, food services, indoor/outdoor gatherings and travel.

President Kevin Hall comments on the need for UVic to address its role in perpetuating colonial systems and violence inflicted on Indigenous people by exploring its historic partnerships and relationships.

Facilities Management will be prioritizing projects over the next several months as staff and faculty transition to working on campus and several major campus infrastructure projects continue.

Join President Kevin Hall and VP Research & Innovation Lisa Kalynchuk for a virtual town hall to learn about UVic's new Research and Creative Works Strategy and give your feedback on the draft strategy.

Now that UVic's Winter Session 2021/22 timetable is live, learn how you can support international students this fall.

In honour of the 215 children whose remains were located on the grounds of the Kamloops Indian Residential School, we will be holding a sacred fire ceremony.

UVic students, staff and faculty can book a research visit to access the library’s rare and unique collections. Bookings must be made 24 hours in advance, for 2 hour visits in the morning or afternoon on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, or Thursdays.

UVic’s Winter Session 2021/22 timetable is now live. It lists courses offered in the fall and spring terms and includes information about how each course will be delivered (face to face or online). Following direction from BC’s provincial health officer, the majority of courses are face to face.

On May 28, the Ministry of Advanced Education and Skills Training hosted a second Town Hall to discuss the preliminary public health guidance for September 2021 provided in the COVID-19 Return-to-Campus Primer.

The university flags were lowered on May 28 in memory of the 215 children whose bodies have been discovered on the grounds of the Kamloops Indian Residential School in Tk’emlúps te Secwépemc First Nation territory. They will remain lowered until further notice.
