The study of American Indian and indigenous peoples provides students with the opportunity to closely examine the histories, issues, and rich cultures of "first nations" throughout the hemisphere and globally. The Minor in American Indian and Indigenous Studies (AIIS) offers flexibility in its interdisciplinary approach as students work with faculty across campus in a wide range of subjects, methods, and interpretations. Students interested in pursuing the AIIS should check with Deborah McCleister, the Religious Studies Undergraduate Advisor, for details about adding the AIIS minor. Prospective Minors are encouraged to meet with Professor Ines Talamantez, the Faculty Advisor for the AIIS minor.
