SFSU NAGPRA PROGRAM - COMMUNITY MEETINGS
Native American Community Meetings at SFSU
Under the sponsorship of Academic Affairs and the American Indian Studies Department, SFSU invites members of the Native American community to meet with campus representatives to discuss issues of mutual interest relating to the university’s NAGPRA Program and tribal interests. These meetings are organized by AIS faculty, and are intended to provide for an open dialog on questions and solutions. Meetings are extremely important to the university as we benefit from the feedback from Native American community leaders and cultural experts.
