On the final episode of the series, I get to interview my fellow classmate Kayla Shaganash who is a 4th year undergrad student doing a double major in Anthropology and Indigenous Studies at the University of Manitoba. We speak about Kayla's experience of being a 2022 Undergrad Research Reward recipient and her future plans of doing archaeological research in Manitoba. Kayla also talks about the role that truth and reconciliation has in her studies, and her continued interest in helping Indigenous students remain connected to their culture on campus as the co-cultural coordinator for UMISA (UofM Indigenous Student Association).
