Upcoming dates to remember

"The MTAG program has been the perfect vehicle for me to learn about tribal administration and governance while still being able to commit the necessary time to stay active with my family life, my work, and my community involvement. The program design has been successful in improving both my breadth and depth of knowledge in Indian law, sovereignty, tribal management, and ethics." - Joe S. Nayquonabe

"The MTAG program fits with my busy schedule, especially with a toddler and a baby at home. I am able to get my masters while working full time, and taking care of my family. This program has helped me in developing a deeper understanding of the various issues that affect Indian Country, and how American Indian history has evolved to what it is today." - Chally Topping

"The MTAG program has given me information and inter-tribal networking that I could immediately utilize in my job." - Gail T. Kulick

"MTAG provides the student with a good base of relevant knowledge to work with or in tribal government.  The cohort model allows for you to interact with other professionals to give a multidimensional prospective.  I found that the relevance of the program was something that I was able to see in practice at my job immediately." - Lea J. Perkins

"It took awhile to get used to prioritizing my work load, my community and personal commitments, and my course load after being out of school for so long. But the material is so immediately applicable to my job with my tribe and even my role in my tribal community that any difficulty I may have had in the beginning seems insignificant now!" - Becky Houle
