"When I saw this site I was surprised to not see any letters about the Native Studies Profs. This is a small group of professors, but they leave big impacts on their student's lives. When I first came to Fredericton I was learning just how little I really knew about the world in all senses. Academically I was not doing so hot because I had never been pushed in high school or taught how to write a proper essay.   One Professor  took the time to help not just me but all of his students by allowing us to hand in our papers, get him to mark then, make the corrections and try again until we got it right. To me he was say it was ok that I was not at the same level as some of my classmates because he would help me reach their level. None of my other professors had done that.  Other professors in this department take time to talk to students not just about their academic lives but also about their personal lives and to help them understand that what they are facing is not just isolated to them. I was having trouble adapting to changes in my home life, and one of my professors noticed that I was distracted he took the time to stop and talk to me, to make sure that I was doing ok. I know of people who go to UNB and for most of them their professors do not even know their names or any thing about them. This is what makes STU's professors better then other universities.

THANK YOU NATIVE STUDIES PROFESSORS!!!!!!!!!
