Diversity Counts on Our Campuses.
RRC Polytech recently launched the Diversity Self-Identification Survey, where all employees and students are invited to voluntarily self-declare as part of one or more of the following equity groups:
- Women
- Indigenous peoples
- People with disabilities
- Racialized persons
- Persons of the 2SLGBTQIA+ community
Participation in the survey will help give the College an accurate picture of who is on our campuses, supporting future inclusive initiatives.
Over the next several weeks, employees and students will be sharing why they are self-identifying. Share your story on social media by using the hashtag #CountMeINcluded.
Marshall Richard
Indigenous Liaison Advisor, Academic Advising
I am proud to self-identify, share my heritage and who I am: Cree and Métis, a father, grandfather, a 60s Scoop Survivor, and a RRC Polytech alumnus. It’s important for me to represent for the past generations who fought to be here and for the future generations to be proud of who they are, where they came from and where they are going. Self-identifying helps us paint an accurate picture and shape the systems we need going forward.

Being aware is the first step to making any changes. We need to recognize ourselves and be recognized for who we truly are. I celebrate being an Asian woman and working professional and want to be the positive change I wish to see in the community.
