Acknowledgement

There has been a significant amount of time and work that has gone into the creation and refinement of these labs! Previous Augustana biology faculty members Dr. David “Doc” Larson, Dr. Michael Mucz, and Dr. Doris Audet wrote the original versions of some labs. I would like to acknowledge the contributions and suggestions that Augustana biology faculty members, instructors, technicians and students have made that have lead to this final product.

Statement of Acknowledgement of the Traditional Territory:

We acknowledge that the land on which we gather, traditionally known as asiniskaw sipisis (Stoney Creek), is Treaty 6 territory and a traditional meeting ground for many Indigenous peoples. The land on which the Augustana Campus of the University of Alberta is located provided a travelling route and home to the Maskwacis Nêhiyawak, Niitsitapi, Nakoda, and Tsuut’ina Nations, the Métis, and other Indigenous peoples. Their spiritual and practical relationships to the land create a rich heritage for our learning and our life as a community.
