Congratulations Harry Nyce Sr.

Congratulations to Nisga’a Hereditary Chief Harry Nyce Sr., Sim’oogit Hleek!

A lifetime of leadership, cultural stewardship and unwavering commitment to community will be recognized as Chief Nyce receives an honorary Doctor of Laws degree from UNBC during the 2026 Convocation ceremony at the Prince George campus.

With a distinguished record of public service spanning more than 50 years, Chief Nyce is a visionary leader who brings people together, shares knowledge generously and work tirelessly to build a better future for generations to come.

He is a steadfast supporter of post-secondary education, playing a significant role in the partnership between the Nisga'a Nation and UNBC.

“Education plays a significant role in cultivating the conditions needed to realize positive change. When we bring together Indigenous knowledge and academic learning, we create stronger paths forward for our youth,” he says. “Beyond that, education supports the equal distribution of health, healing and positive well-being for all people.”
