The Wabanaki Student Centre is a dedicated Indigenous gathering space for students at the Moncton Campus to relax, study, and learn about Mi’kmaq culture and reconciliation.

“Wabanaki” refers to the People of the Dawn, as they are the first to see the sunrise in the eastern part of North America. The term is closely associated with the Wabanaki Confederacy, a historic alliance based on mutual respect, protection, and safe trade and travel. The centre reflects Indigenous culture, history, and spiritual connection grounded in respect and community.

At the Saint John Campus, Indigenous and non-Indigenous learners are welcome to drop-in, connect, study, and relax at the Menahqesk Centre. The centre is designed to promote and preserve local Indigenous culture and history. It features artwork by Robin Paul of Welamukotuk First Nation, depicting Saint John’s geography and incorporating braided sweetgrass—traditionally gathered by Indigenous peoples in New Brunswick.

“Menahqesk” loosely translates to “the place where the sea takes the land,” and is the Wolastoqey name for the Saint John area.

Room A-3118

Students at the Woodstock Campus are invited to visit the Kilun Lounge, a space to connect, study, and relax.

“Kilun” is the Wolastoqey word for “all of us together.” A mural by artist Roche Sappier features symbols representing the diverse cultures of the Upper Saint John River Valley. The space supports higher learning, inclusion, and shared community, where all cultures and peoples are welcome.
