Land Acknowledgement

We stand upon a land that has been the home of the Kumeyaay people from time immemorial. This land has nourished, healed, and protected the Kumeyaay people to the present day. It is part of a world view founded in the harmony, balance, and the relationship-building between the land and the people. As students and employees of Cuyamaca College we acknowledge this legacy from the Kumeyaay. We will take action to support and preserve the Kumeyaay way of life, the Kumeyaay people, and Kumeyaay knowledge. This is the land of the Kumeyaay.
