In mid-October, the Sloan Indigenous Graduate Partnership cohort and Center staff shared a beautiful day on retreat at Sodus Point, right next to the sand and waters of Lake Ontario. We spent many hours walking and sitting on the beach, eating, talking, admiring the peak fall foliage, hiking on the spectacular bluffs at Chimney Bluffs State Park, and enjoying each others’ company far from the distractions of school. The highlight of our time together was a raucous game that scholar Spencer Lone Fight taught us to play! As you can see, we were enthusiastic students! We are already looking forward to our next retreat and more opportunities to bond and relax.
