BACKGROUND NOTE
The American Indian Studies program is an inter-college
program. Course work in various departments of the university provides
a broad base for understanding the past, present, and possible futures
of the American Indian people. The program recognizes the historical
and contemporary significance of American Indian experiences. Study of
these experiences promotes understanding of the pluralist nature of the
U.S. and responds to the growing needs for multicultural sensitivity and
awareness.
SCOPE AND CONTENTS NOTE
This collection is composed mainly of material pertaining
to the American Indian History Conference. This conference, first
organized in 1992, focuses on Native American history that brings
American Indian speakers, artists and performers to the South Dakota
State University campus for the purpose of better educating the student
body, faculty and community about Native American cultures. Because this
conference receives support from various parts of the university, the
decision was made by the processor to place this material with the
American Indian Studies Program records. Folders includes minutes,
correspondence, planning documents and materials, funding materials, a
list of participants, a coordinator to-do list, and a historical
overview of the conference written by Dr. David Crain who served as
coordinator from 1993-2007.
Also included is a small amount of material dealing with
the American Indian Studies Program. Folders include a syllabus for the
Introduction to American Indian Studies course and a poster advertising
service-learning summer program opportunities.
