The University of Calgary recently announced a new Sikh Studies program for students. U of C is the first among many universities to implement a one-of-a-kind program that encourages diversity, compassion, pluralism and an in-depth understanding of the peaceful nature of the religion.
This program gives students the opportunity to gain a comprehensive study of Sikh traditions, practices and philosophy. The program will not only enable students to declare a minor focus in Sikh studies, but those with a renewed interest will be permitted to carry out graduate studies at a masters level. Sometime in the future, the program is hoping to add further courses to the collection in order to provide the option to major in Sikh Studies.

Following the shootings in Atlanta, Harshpreet Kaur, a freshman at UGA and secretary of the Sikh Student Association, said her parents cautioned her against drawing attention to herself. They feared if she made her opinions pronounced, she could be a target for a hate crime.
âDonât try to pick a fight with anybody. We don t know if something could happen to you. Just stay calm in all the situations so there s no backlash,â Kaur said her parents advised her.
Still, Kaur and Sodhi remain unwavering advocates of social justice and equality, which they said is a central belief to the Sikh faith.
