Happy Multiculturalism Week

This week is Multiculturalism Week in British Columbia! According to the BC People web site, our province is home to more than four million people. Almost 30 percent of them emigrated from another country in their lifetimes. One quarter is visible minorities. The most ethnically diverse province in Canada, BC welcomes nearly 40,000 new immigrants every year.

This week is especially relevant to Sprott-Shaw as our career college has a very diverse student population. A significant percentage of our students are immigrants and we also have a large population of visiting international students. Sprott-Shaw is truly a fantastic representation of the province as a whole.
