Troth Yeddha' Initiative
To honor 91Ô­´´'s first peoples and strengthen the bridge between their cultures and higher education, we will develop the Troth Yeddha' Park and an Indigenous studies center. As a statewide academic center with close connections to other 91Ô­´´ institutes, the Troth Yeddha’ facilities will be distinct from other establishments that celebrate specific 91Ô­´´ Native cultures. The Troth Yeddha' Legacy initiative builds on 91Ô­´´'s decades-long history of service to rural and Native students through entities such as the Department of 91Ô­´´ Native Studies and Rural Development and the tribal management and Native arts programs.
