Abstract
|
:
|
Formal Indian education in America stretches all the way from reservation preschools to prestigious urban universities. "Power and Place" examines the issues facing Native American students as they progress through schools, colleges, and on into professions. This collection of 16 essays is at once philosophic, practical, and visionary. A concise reference for administrators, educators, students, and community leaders involved with Indian education.
