Smudging
Safety Resources has created a Safety Considerations document which provides health and safety information related to smudging and pipe ceremonies, as well as guidelines for safely conducting these ceremonies indoors in University of Saskatchewan facilities. A list of approved spaces where smudging may occur is outlined; provided local communication processes have been adhered to. This document from Safety Resources can be found at: Smudging and Pipe Ceremony Safety Considerations
