Institutional Name Variations

As our institution evolved from being a college to a university college to a university, our name changed. Therefore, you will see documents referring to the following three names: Fraser Valley College, University College of the Fraser Valley, and University of the Fraser Valley. Collections include the intellectual output of faculty, students and staff of UFV and the earlier institutions.

The University of the Fraser Valley is situated on the traditional territory of the Stó:lō peoples. The Stó:lō have an intrinsic relationship with what they refer to as S’olh Temexw (Our Sacred Land), therefore we express our gratitude and respect for the honour of living and working in this territory.
