Minor Native American Studies

It’s impossible to tell the story of America without a thorough understanding of Native American history and culture. Deepen and enrich your understanding of our national heritage through the Native American Studies minor.

As a student in St. Scholastica’s Native American Studies program, you will be immersed in Native American history, tribal cultures, philosophy, and modern-day contemporary experiences. Learn about Native Americans’ profound contributions to our shared social, political, economic, and scientific development.

Faculty involved in this unique program not only teach, but will advise you through your studies. Through this program, you will also have the opportunity to join the Native American Student Alliance to get more involved with Native events and outreach.
