Three new classes will be offered: Introduction to American Indian and Indigenous Studies. This is an introduction to the interdisciplinary field that pro- vides a historic and contem- porary perspective of social, political and cultural issues that Indigenous peoples in North America face.

Contemporar y Issues of Native Nations. This is a course that provides an un- derstanding of the impacts of historical events and trauma, the resiliency of Native na- tions and the role of tribal sovereignty in the U.S
