Land Acknowledgement

We would like to acknowledge that Cañada College sits on the traditional land of the Ramaytush (Rah-my-toosh) Ohlone (Oh-LOW-nee) peoples, and to pay respects to past elders and honor the present community. Long before Cañada College existed, this area was home to the Ramaytush Ohlone peoples who still have a presence in the bay today. Let us not forget the colonization of this land. Let us honor the people who have stewarded this land for generations, and let us honor the truth. (This land acknowledgement was co-created with students, Student Life, and Dr. Cordero from the Association of Ramaytush Ohlone).
