Did you know the University of Lethbridge has another name? Its Blackfoot name is Iniskim, meaning Sacred Buffalo Stone. The name was given to the University by Blackfoot Elder Bruce Wolf Child. Another important fact: the University is located in traditional Blackfoot Confederacy territory. There are formal statements that acknowledge this; you’ll hear them spoken at events and meetings.
