Abstract
The Head and Heart program has provided me, along with other Indigenous scholars at Western the opportunity to explore the foundations of Indigenous research and then a chance to conduct our own research projects. Through this experience, I had the chance to begin my research project from scratch, and for my own research question as opposed to joining an already existing project. For my research I took a personal approach and examined the Indigenous scholar experience and how the topic of Indigenous identity is challenged within the Canadian post-secondary education system.
