Native American/Indigenous

The Student Life Center for Belonging and Social Change fosters a supportive campus environment, affirming of the traditions and cultures of Native American and Indigenous peoples. We offer space for students to explore their own histories and identities, as well as raise awareness across the broader campus community that Indigenous peoples are still here and making strides on all levels of American society.

The Student Life Center for Belonging and Social Change partners with students, the American Indian Studies program and the local Native American/Indigenous community to celebrate and educate students, staff, faculty and allies about the diversity of Native American and Indigenous peoples before, during and after contact.
