Third Annual Vine Deloria, Jr. Indigenous Studies SymposiumJuly 24, 2008 - 12:00am - July 26, 2008 - 12:00am The purpose of this symposium is to bring together Native and non-native scholars and tribal elders who are interested in honoring the life and work of our friend, colleague, and mentor, Vine Deloria, Jr., and in presenting new ideas and expanding knowledge in several key areas that Vine devoted his life to. The symposium this year will focus on federal Indian law and policy, including, but not limited to, sovereignty, treaty, and governance issues. The symposium itself will be organized as a series of intellectually driven panels – no "workshop" type presentations – and specially invited speakers addressing these issues. Individual presentations may be formal or informal, but in keeping with the spirit of Vine, there will be no PowerPoint or other electronic presentations. The Vine Deloria, Jr. Address this year will be delivered by: Hank Adams, President For information on presenting or on abstract submission, please contact: Location(s)Northwest Indian College Bellingham, WA, 98226United States Costs: Registration fee - $100 (includes lunches and salmon dinner)Phone #: Registration, lodging, meals and other info call Symposium Co-coordinator, Angel Jefferson at 360.392.4287E-mail: ajefferson@nwic.edu |
