Congratulations to Linguistics PhD student Marianne Huijsmans, who is one of six Faculty of Arts recipients of the Community-University Engagement Support fund, for a community project on “Reviewing, enriching, and sharing an ʔayʔaǰuθəm e-dictionary.” The community partner is Jacqueline Mathieu, of the Klahoose First Nation. The funding is paid directly to community partners, and is intended to “reduce financial barriers and prioritize reciprocal, inclusive engagement.” Best wishes to Marianne!
