American
Indian Studies
Sidner Larson, Director
The primary goal of the Iowa State University American Indian Studies
Program is to conduct interdisciplinary investigation of the intellectual
practices, lived history, values, political status, rights, and responsibilities
of tribal nations. Objectives include analysis of the tropes and techniques
common to American Indian oral and written literatures; comparison/contrast
of American Indian cultures to mainstream and other world cultures; and,
articulation of the role American Indians are playing in approaches to
modern social and environmental issues. Courses in American Indian Studies
can be used in a minor, as electives, or in an interdisciplinary major.
