Hamlet in Nunavut celebrates being chosen as site of first Inuit-led university in Canada

Arviat, Nunavut, a community of about 3,200 people on the western coast of Hudson Bay, was selected by Inuit Tapiriit Kanatami to host the university's main campus in part because it is known as an 'education leader' and has a strong connection to Inuktitut, the Inuit language.
