Abstract Peters, Brian Anderson ABSTRACT PETERS, BRIAN ANDERSON. "My Education, Not Only for Me and My Family but My People”: Storied Experiences of Native American Students' College Choice at Four-Year Institutions in North Carolina. (Under the Direction of Dr. Joy Gayles). While increased scholarship has begun to explore the stories of Native American students in higher education, less research has explored Native American student college choice. In this qualitative, narrative study, the experiences of seven Native American students’ college choice at four-year institutions in North Carolina were explored. Perna’s (2006) conceptual model of college choice provided a framework for the analysis. One research question guided this study: What were the storied experiences of Native American students from North Carolina when they chose to attend college? Findings from this study indicate that Native American students described their college choice process through four themes: family, Native identity and community, external factors, and growth and opportunities. Native American students in this study were inspired by their families and Native communities to pursue higher education. The participants pursued medical and human services disciplines to return and support their Native communities after completing their degrees. To be successful and have a “home feeling” on campus, they looked for universities with thriving Native communities through student organizations and supportive Native faculty and staff. Factors such as distance from home, academic preparation, and federal recognition impacted the participants choice. Through the four themes of Native college choice, higher education researchers, policymakers, and administrators have a better understanding of how to connect and serve Native American students. With increased attention, Native American student participation rates within higher education may increase as they have a home feeling on campus and perceive higher education as a gateway for success for their families and communities. © Copyright 2018 by Brian Anderson Peters All Rights Reserved "My Education, Not Only for Me and My Family but My People”: Storied Experiences of Native American Students' College Choice at Four-Year Institutions in North Carolina by Brian Anderson Peters A dissertation submitted to the Graduate Faculty of North Carolina State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Educational Research & Policy Analysis Raleigh, North Carolina 2018 APPROVED BY: _______________________________ _______________________________ Dr. Joy Gayles Dr. Susan C.

Completing a bachelor’s degree in history, Brian completed the University Honors Program, graduated sum cum laude, and salutatorian of his class in 2008. He completed his undergraduate thesis under the direction of Dr. Bud Robertson. After the tragic events on April 11, 2017, Brian was inspired to work in higher education where he could support college students. He moved to Williamsburg, V.A. where he completed his master’s in education from the College of William and Mary. He completed his master’s thesis under the direction of Dr. Pamela Eddy in 2010. After completing his first two degrees, he worked for a year in Residence Life at the University of Tennessee: Chattanooga. He then moved to Raleigh, N.C. where he worked at N.C. State as the Honors Village Community Director with the University Honors Program and University Housing for four years. During this time, Brian began his doctoral degree at N.C. State. In 2015, Brian transitioned across campus to academic advising with the Poole College of Management. He was then promoted to senior academic advisor in 2017 and serves as the college’s representative to the University’s American Indian Advisory Council. Brian has published scholarship in multiple disciplines: higher education, Native American student experiences, cooperative extension, and history. iv ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS There are several people I would like to thank for helping me complete not only my doctoral degree but my entire educational journey. First, I want to thank Dr. Joy Gaston Gayles for her mentorship and guidance as my chair and advisor. Her ideas and challenging feedback made me a better scholar and inspired me to conduct research that could have a positive impact on others. I would also like to thank the rest of my committee for giving critical feedback and support: Dr. Paul Umbach, Dr. Meghan Manfra, and Dr. Susan Faircloth. I would also like to thank the N.C. State Higher Education and School of Education faculty for their teaching, scholarship, and mentorship over the past six years: Dr. Audrey Jaeger, Dr. Alyssa Rockenbach, Dr. Stephen Porter, Dr. Tiffany Davis, Dr. Lance Fusarelli, Dr. Deleon Gray, Dr. Brad Mehlenbacher, Dr. Demetrius Richmond, Dr. Kay Moore, and Dean Mary Ann Danowitz. I always felt included as a part-time student due to the teaching style of the faculty, the support of the college in my education, and funding my study abroad experience in St. Petersburg, Russia. I would also like to thank the many NC State staff for their friendship, inspiration, and motivation. To my fellow Poole advisors: Melusian Wright, Jennifer McLamb, Megan Van Hook, Julie Lawson, Dr. Lauren Brown, Alissa Dodds, Christin James, DeWhitney Upchurch, and Keith Martin, I thank you all for being my daily partners in bringing positive change to the lives of our students.

I also would like to thank my colleagues in the Executive Council for Phi Beta Kappa at N.C. State for their support and friendship the past several years. I also would not have completed my dissertation, or remained at N.C. State, if it had not been for the N.C. State students. As my participants taught me in this study, your community on campus is essential for feeling at home and being successful. First, I would like to thank my cohort members for taking this journey with me: Nicole Guistwite, Alex Waldie, Dr. Callie Womble, Ariel Cochrane-Brown, Dr. Alicia Keating Polson, Ashley Gray, Ginger Draughon, and Darren Smith. In addition, there are several doctoral students who supported me along the way: Greg King, Dr. Beth Vincent, Nicole Ditillo, Chelsea Doub, Ben Dictus, Nathan Williams, Helen Wu, Katie Johnson, Katie Smith, Ashley McMillan, Sharbari Dey, Dr. Rob Moore, Whitney Richardson, Megan Ennes, Whitney McLaughlin, Desiree Unselt, Dr. Ashley Clayton, Dr. Alessandra Dinin, Dr. Shauna Morin, Dr. Matt Starcke, Dr. Thomas Green, Dr. Becky Crandall, Dr. Racheal Brooks, Dr. Regina Williams, Dr. Mary Medina, Holley Nichols, and Sarah Andrea. Thank you all for being continual inspirations and great friendship. And to the N.C. State undergraduates, especially from the University Honors Program, the Poole College of vi Management, and the University Recreation and Wellness Fitness instructors, thank you for inspiring me every day. I would not have been able to complete a doctorate if I had not had the strong mentorship from scholars outside of N.C. State. To Virginia Tech faculty who first inspired me to conduct research: Dr. Nancy Franz, Dr. Barry Garst, and Dr. Bud Robertson, and to my advisors and mentors at the College of William and Mary: Dr. Pamela Eddy, Dr. Dot Finnegan, Dr. Eddie Cole, and Dr. James Barber, I thank you all for supporting me through the years and for your friendship. I would also like to thank Dr. Tim Cain from the University of Georgia for his advice and support.

  • Duke Forest Land Acknowledgement
    Duke Forest Land Acknowledgement The Office of the Duke Forest has the benefit of presenting this land acknowledgement because of the research and synthesis provided by Duke Faculty and Duke Forest Advisory Committee member, Nicolette Cagle, Ph.D. We understand that a university-wide committee is now in the process of developing a land acknowledgement statement for all of Duke University’s landholdings, which we will also provide here once it is completed. As part of our mission to facilitate teaching and research across all disciplines and for all students, we actively support efforts to investigate, reveal, and hold-up the histories and legacies of people on Duke Forest land that have yet to be understood and told. As Gould (1992) acknowledges, “there is not a university in this country that is not built on what was once native land.” That is true for Duke University and its Duke Forest landholdings. What is now Durham and Orange Counties was originally the territory of several Native nations, including Tutelo (TOO-tee-lo) and Saponi (suh-POE-nee) - speaking peoples. Many of their communities were displaced or killed through war, disease, and colonial expansion. Today, the Triangle is surrounded by contemporary Native nations, the descendants of Tutelo, Saponi, and other Indigenous peoples who survived early colonization. These nations include the Haliwa-Saponi (HALL-i-wa suh-POE-nee), Sappony (suh-POE-nee), and Occaneechi (oh-kuh-NEE-chee) Band of Saponi. North Carolina’s Research Triangle is also home to a thriving urban Native American community who represent Native nations from across the United States.

Section 1062 of the NHPA is central to that program and requires federal agencies to consider the effects of projects they carry out, assist, fund, permit, license, or approve (undertakings) on historic properties.3 As part of this review process, federal agencies consult with interested parties to identify and evaluate historic properties, assess the effects of the undertakings on these properties, and attempt to negotiate an outcome that will balance project needs and historic preservation values.4 Federal agencies must consult with certain parties, including the State Historic Preservation Officers (SHPO), Tribal Historic Preservation Officers (THPO) (when projects are on or affect historic properties on tribal lands), and Indian tribes or Native Hawaiian organizations (NHOs) when historic properties of religious and cultural significance to them may be affected by undertakings. Federal agencies should also consider reaching out to other parties when gathering information about historic properties or to obtain their views about historic properties that may be important to them, which is the focus of this guide. This document provides information and guidance for federal agencies regarding engagement with non- federally recognized tribes in the Section 106 process.

Clovis (9,500 – 8,000 B.C.) Archaic Early (8,000 -6,000 B.C.) Middle (6,000 – 2,500 B.C.) Late (2,500 – 1,200 B.C.) Woodland Early (1,200 – 500 B.C.) Middle (500 B.C. – 900 A.D.) Late (900 – 1,600 A.D.) Mississippian Culture (Influence of) Tribes of Virginia 2 Alternate Hypotheses about Pre-historic Migration Routes taken by Paleo- Indians from Asia or Europe into North America: (1) From Asia by Water along the Northern Pacific or across the land bridge from Asia thru Alaska/Canada; or (2) From Europe on the edge of the ice pack along the North Atlantic Coast to the Temperate Lands below the Laurentide Ice Sheet. 3 Coming to America (The “Land Bridge” Hypothesis from Asia to North America thru Alaska) * * Before Present 4 Migrations into North and Central America from Asia via Alaska 5 The “Solutrean” Hypothesis of Pre-historic Migration into North America The Solutrean hypothesis claims similarities between the Solutrean point- making industry in France and the later Clovis culture / Clovis points of North America, and suggests that people with Solutrean tool technology may have crossed the Ice Age Atlantic by moving along the pack ice edge, using survival skills similar to that of modern Eskimo people. The migrants arrived in northeastern North America and served as the donor culture for what eventually developed into Clovis tool-making technology.
