The Story Behind Our Logo
Tribal colleges and universities were established by Tribal Nations to provide a solid foundation in education for Native people and to reverse the impacts of centuries of discrimination and forced cultural assimilation.
To represent the American Indian College Fund’s mission to provide tribal college students with access to a tribal college higher education, it created a logo incorporating both a flame and a feather.
The flame represents how education illuminates both individuals and communities through intellectual and economic growth. The feather nestled within the flame represents how tribal colleges work to revitalize Native language and culture by integrating them into their curricula, while immersing students in their Native languages, cultures, and traditions.

THE WISDOM OF OUR STUDENTS
American Indian College Fund student ambassadors are driven leaders on campus, in their communities and in their families. More than that, they work to uplift Native voices and perspectives while modeling their Indigenous values.
The following student ambassadors shared their perspectives about their academic journeys, the importance of financial support for their education, and their hopes for the future. Their words offer a glimpse into the passion of Native students, the traditional values that guide them, and how they are working to make tribal communities and the world a better place.
Annalise (Cherokee Nation) is proof that first-generation tribal college graduates go on to do great things. A graduate of Haskell Indian Nations University, she is a doctoral student at the University of Kansas earning a degree in ecology and environmental biology with a focus on researching how humans influence the thin layer of soil that allows life on Earth to exist.
In her research she also uses her powers of analysis to observe the differences between western scientific practice and Indigenous ways of knowing with biological systems, and interrogates whether creativity and science can co-exist. She is also a strong advocate, encouraging other Native students to pursue academic careers, and for combining land stewardship with science to protect the environment for tribal communities.
Indigenous communities are vulnerable to the effects of climate change, and she says land use change “and everything that comes along with that. I hope I can lead the way in making our communities able to adapt to or mitigate those types of consequences.”
Annalise hopes to inspire others to achieve their dreams. “I want to give a kind word or gesture that changes the trajectory for other Indigenous scholars and show them they are worthy of being in an academic setting… [and] I really hope to leverage my degree in a way that I'll be a leader within my community, specifically as it relates to climate sciences.”
Cherish (Lower Brule Sioux Tribe of the Lower Brule Reservation ) was born and raised on the Flathead Indian Reservation in Montana, where she completed her bachelor’s degree at Salish Kootenai College, the tribal college there. As an undergraduate, she won awards for writing business plans that integrated sustainability, economic development, and healing for Indigenous people. Now studying for a master’s degree in business administration and American Indian entrepreneurship from Gonzaga University, she wants to advance economic development to increase employment opportunities and create greater economic sustainability of all Indigenous communities, including her own.
“Part of reclaiming our sovereignty as Native people is reclaiming the power to tell our own stories from a perspective that is a truer version of American history than the one that gets told,” she says.
In the 1960s, when N. Scott Momaday (Kiowa) won the Pulitzer Prize, “we start[ed] to see complex identities mapped that were at once tribally specific and American… [but] then…diversity and publishing just disappeared. There were many boomer generation authors, but the number of Generation X authors being published from Indian country was small.” Today “we are barely scratching the surface of our increasingly intersectional identities…there is a lot at stake...Indigenous values are speaking to things like democratic ideals, the preservation of natural resources, climate change…the rise of strong men. Native voices are necessary to these times.”
Taffa says readers gain a great deal through exposure to different generations of storytelling. “I came of age in the 70s and 80s, in an era of American Indian experiences that were not mapped in our literature much…We have a lot of older voices, N. Scott Momaday, Leslie Marmon Silko, Paula Gunn Allen, Louise Erdrich, and now we have younger voices emerging. But those of us in our fifties remember a quiet period when there was not enough Native literature. We had our juggernaut from the Pacific Northwest. We had Sherwin Bitsui. But for a long time, the big publishers said the renaissance was dead. Now we have Brandon Hobson, Oscar Hokeah, and Ramona Emerson. There are older writers filling a gap, and I hope to see more Native stories set in the 1980s being told...”
Unlike the new generation of writers, Taffa’s generation had access to Old World grandparents. “My great grandma was born in the late 1800s. We have living memories of people

who belonged to a different America. It was a time before cell phones and the internet. Many of us grew up straddling the rural and the urban, whereas many of my students, born in the late nineties in the early 2000s, write about city life. It is all good, just different. My generation was on a threshold between a simpler reservation life and the more contemporary world.”
Taffa says all Native stories need to be told. “[W]e cannot have that old-fashioned belief many Native people had when I was a child which was, ‘they have taken everything from us and now they are trying to take our stories.’ I believe it's time for Native people to worry less about appropriation and more about finding a way to be influential in society.”
Storytelling requires reckoning with history and can be uncomfortable. “Our stories are American stories that people need to learn if we are going to heal ourselves as a nation. We cannot hide from our American histories because they are wounding and damaging. Education is inherently wounding. It is our job to educate not only our own children and our grandchildren, but the nation. People need to share in our values.”
Taffa says her memoir was born of the need to tell her Native-Hawaiian grandchildren what it meant to be both an Indigenous woman and an American citizen in 2024. She worried they might come of age and struggle with the “schizophrenic fears about belonging that I did.”
“[I]f I was going to help my grandchildren, I had to get it down on the page, not in a stained–glass way, but in a way that was… completely transparent, and make my peace with the fact that everyone else was overhearing our conversation,” she said. “I wrote the book for my grandchildren. That was the only way I could find my voice. In this way, the book is an intimate conversation, like one held over the dinner table while other diners eavesdropped. Ultimately sharing felt ethical because the stories I wrote serve as an indictment of American greed.”
“There is power in speaking the truth…I feel really comfortable and blessed that my father, my siblings, and my tribes have been supportive.”
THE WISDOM OF HIGH SCHOOL EQUIVALENCY STUDENTS
The American Indian College Fund and the Dollar General Literacy Foundation have partnered to help Native adults gain the foundational literacy skills to prepare for and obtain high school equivalency (HSE) credentials and to pursue post-secondary education and meaningful careers. The opportunity to advance their education is critical. Per the College Board’s “Education Pays 2023” report, those over the age of 25 with a bachelor’s degree have median earnings $29,000 higher than high school graduates who do not pursue higher education. The unemployment rate for those 25 and over who hold a bachelor’s degree is also half that of the rate of high school graduates. Though attending additional schooling may mean less income in the short-term, these losses are recouped after completing their education and entering the workforce.
Now in its tenth year, the Native Students Stepping Forward: Dollar General Adult Education Program partners with eight TCUs in the Midwest, Northern Great Plains, Southwest, and Pacific Northwest to provide students who did not earn a traditional high school diploma with the skills, instruction, guidance, and support they need to earn a secondary equivalent credential.
One of those students is Robert DeCoteau (Jamestown S’Klallam). Robert was already familiar with the Adult Basic Education (ABE) program at Northwest Indian College (NWIC) before he even finished high school. The head of the program, John Frey, also helped local high school students stay on track to graduate, and Robert was an occasional visitor to his classroom. Although he passed his courses with Frey’s help, Robert dropped out of high school his senior year. But he later decided he was ready to return to school when the Lummi Casino where he worked closed. Robert discovered a GED was a minimum education requirement for most job opportunities.
He returned to Frey’s class and used the GED he earned as the foundation for taking additional computer classes for training he knew he would need along with his Autobody Technology program at Bellingham Technical College. He also volunteered to tutor other students in
the GED program, unaware at the time how tutoring was a foreshadowing of his future career.
Robert had earned a bachelor’s in business and a master’s in management and leadership. He applied for a job with NWIC’s Workforce Education Department, which oversaw the ABE program. He quickly rose to the director position for the department and made it his mission to ensure the program’s success. NWIC established a partnership with Bellingham Technical College to offer a competency-based high school completion program alongside the traditional GED pathway. The new pathway became a great success, with Robert’s 50-year-old brother being one of the first graduates of the program, proving one is never too old to go back to school to achieve one’s dreams.
ABE is the longest running program at NWIC, and Robert is proud to have helped keep it alive and growing. But his dreams of the future are not what you’d expect. “Every now and again I’ll see the neighborhood kids meeting up after school on the old campus, gathering together before riding their bikes off on that day’s adventure. I’m hopeful that none of them will need our program, and that each of them will have the wherewithal to stay in school and push through to commencement. Perhaps they will come to us for a degree to go with their diploma. One of them might even have my position one day and I will have to make that bittersweet decision to close the ABE program because there is just so little need for our services in the community,” he says.
BEQUESTS
The following generous supporters have left lasting legacies through their estate plans. Their generosity ensures that American Indian and Alaska Native students will have the opportunity to pursue their dreams of a higher education and career. We honor their memories here.
