Native America in the 21st
Century:
Out of the Mists and Beyond Myth
The complexity, breadth, and depth
of Native America and Native American cultural experience have not
been fully understood heretofore. The first citizens of the Western
Hemisphere not only achieved major accomplishments prior to European
contact, but they also are committed to the maintenance of a
cultural present and future.

Rapid and dramatic demographic and
technological changes present our nation’s colleges,
universities, and schools with enormous challenges for educating
students in science, technology, engineering, and math in the
new century.
Among the most critical questions we
face are: What will students need to know in order to succeed
academically and to be technologically literate? What
characteristics, skills, and values must they possess? What
strategies and “best practices” can colleges and universities
use to support and ensure the success of all students in all
fields? How does graduate education fit into the pipeline for
the development and preparation of future faculty, future
thinkers, future leaders, and future decision makers in our
world?
Answers to these questions will
largely determine the global competitiveness of America’s
workforce and the civic engagement of its citizenry in the first
part of the 21st century.
Admission is FREE, but seating is limited, so please arrive
early!
