Vancouver Island University celebrated university designation and the installation of its first Chancellor with a special week-long celebration September 22 to 26, 2008.
A major part of the celebration was the installation of Chief Shawn A-in-chut Atleo as the institutions first Chancellor.
Chief Atleos appointment is significant because he is the first Aboriginal person to be appointed as a Chancellor in the province of British Columbia.
Atleo is a Hereditary Chief from the Ahousaht First Nation and serves as the British Columbia Regional Chief of the Assembly of First Nations.
