Troth Yeddha' Initiative
To honor ÃÛÌÒÓ°Ïñ'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 ÃÛÌÒÓ°Ïñ institutes, the Troth Yeddha’ facilities will be distinct from other establishments that celebrate specific ÃÛÌÒÓ°Ïñ Native cultures. The Troth Yeddha' Legacy initiative builds on ÃÛÌÒÓ°Ïñ's decades-long history of service to rural and Native students through entities such as the Department of ÃÛÌÒÓ°Ïñ Native Studies and Rural Development and the tribal management and Native arts programs.
