April 20, 21: Native American Programs hosts Mentoring and Research Workshops

This is the first in the series of three workshops devoted to recruiting and mentoring Native American graduate students and conducting responsible, collaborative research with Native American communities. These workshops are organized by the Plateau Center for Native American Research & Collaboration and The WSU Graduate School, with support from the PNW-COSMOS Alliance.

In the first workshop, we will provide basic information about Native American history, federal and state policy, and tribal sovereignty.  We will also discuss the importance of these topics to higher education and the approach taken toward them by scholars of “Indigenous Research Methods.”

This workshop will be offered on April 20, 4 – 6 p.m. and April 21, 4 – 6 p.m., in the Plateau Center (ground floor of Cleveland Hall).

If you are interested please RSVP to Ken Lokensgard at kenneth.lokensgard@wsu.edu

We will provide further details about the upcoming workshops soon.
