BOOK LAUNCH

Join daughter of the soil Dr Jan Etienne at the Harbour Club Rodney Bay Saint Lucia for the launch of her latest book "Feminist Scholars' Experiences in Decolonising the Academy ".

Dr Etienne ( Editor) brings together a range of experiences from a diverse group of feminist scholars to explore how perspectives of race, class, gender, and social identity can impact and inform decolonising activism.

Ideal reading for students of Gender Studies, Critical Race Theory Studies, Black Studies, Decolonial Studies, Activism Studies, and other related and interdisciplinary courses, this book will be of interest to all scholars interested in the decolonisation of the higher education curriculum.

The book invites us into some very important conversations. It explores what decolonising higher education really looks and feels like: the barriers and challenges, but also the possibilities and opportunities. It asks us to think more deeply about access to higher education for people who are neurodiverse, for those who learn differently, and about the social injustices that are so often present, but too rarely spoken about.

Dedicated to the memory of her brother Stuart, the launch takes place on Wednesday 23rd September from 6:00p.m.

All are invited!

Scenes from General/ Site Orientation 2026!

A special thank you to all the students who joined us for our General/Site Orientation and participated so enthusiastically. We also extend our appreciation to our Guild, Alumni and Toastmasters executive teams for helping us create a warm and welcoming experience for our newest members of the UWI community.

Our guest speaker, Leon, delivered an engaging and inspirational message, while our mentors Abigail Samuel, Shem Hippolyte, Augustin Faulkner, Quint Augustin, Cristal Smith-Peter and Dr Clarence Henry shared valuable advice, encouragement and practical tips to help our students navigate their university journey with confidence.

Attendees also had the opportunity to participate in a free health screening, which also served as an important reminder that personal well-being remains part of a successful academic journey.

As this new chapter begins, we wish every student success, growth and memorable experiences along the way.
