We need to make sure Native students who wish to go to college to fulfill their own dreams, have the financial assistance they need to not have to worry about additional obstacles. We must expand upon our own bodies of knowledge that reflect the needs of our respective nations or communities and begin to fill those gaps in terms of knowledge or skill areas that are needed from Tribal citizens.
