In our traditional and historic experiences, education is the way that we learn about creation, spirituality, social and family relationships, and how to provide for ourselves. In our contemporary life, we are experiencing education in more formal settings such as schools, colleges and universities but that education still has the same purposes. This report is a collection of stories about how we, as Native people, are experiencing higher educa- tion in the State of Washington. Our experiences are shared from an institutional perspective show- ing the many ways that state, independent and tribal colleges and universities are striving to meet the demand of tribal people for a high quality education that honors cultural identity and tribal goals. Our stories share many successes. Through this brief examination of our best practices, our pathways, successful strategies can be examined and explored toward creation of even more opportunities. No barrier to access American Indians across the U.S. continue to be among those popula- is so great that it tions which have a low participation rate in higher education. This is true cannot be removed for tribal people in the State of Washington as well. There are many ways in which we continue to fail or limit the opportunity for education for Native through our people. This can range from inadequate preparation for college and limited collective efforts. financial aid to a lack of transportation or childcare. From our perspective as Native people, access to education not only removes barriers but honors the place-based experiences of tribal people and recognizes deeply embedded cultural identity. Native people should be able to go to college wherever they want. No barrier to access is so great that it cannot be removed through our collective efforts. We have a right to educa- tion. We have a right to a post-secondary educational experience that honors our identities, promotes our social and economic well-being, builds our capacity as leaders and managers of our own resources and provides the training that we need to be successful in our careers. The recommendations of this report focus on specific strategies to promote improved access. We appreciate the many ways that our allies throughout higher education including founda- tions, tribal, state and federal government partners and legislators and organizations in our communities have shown determination and willingness. More persistent and adequate re- sources are needed in order to continue to move forward with the recommendations. The hands, hearts, and minds of many people touched this report. Their contributions are honored by each of us through our commitment to using the report to inform our discussions and our decisions. My hands go up to each of you in appreciation for your work. Cheryl Crazy Bull, President Northwest Indian College III | Pathways for Native Students Executive Summary Introduction This report is the product of a collaboration between Northwest Indian College, The Evergreen State College, Grays Harbor College, Antioch University-Seattle, and Muckleshoot Tribal College. Our partnership sprang from a common interest in better serving Native students and communities by strengthening programs and creating more seamless pathways between our institutions. An important part of our work was to explore the postsecondary education landscape for Native American students in the state of Washington. Washington has a substantial Native American/Alaska In recognition of the gap between those with postsec- Native

  • Supp III a Basin Description
    Supplement Section III — Basin Description Information Base Part A — Basin Description The Chehalis River Basin is the largest river basin in western Washington. With the exception of the Columbia River basin, it is the largest in the state. The basin extends over eight counties. It encompasses large portions of Grays Harbor, Lewis, and Thurston counties, and smaller parts of Mason, Pacific, Cowlitz, Wahkiakum, and Jefferson counties. For purposes of water resources planning under the Washington State Watershed Planning Act of 1998, the Chehalis Basin was divided into two Water Resource Inventory Areas (WRIAs), WRIA 22 and WRIA 23, depicted here with surrounding WRIA numbers and in relation to the whole state of Washington. Chehalis Basin Watershed — County Land Areas County Area (sq.mi.) Area (acres) Percentage Grays Harbor 1,390 889,711 50.3% Thurston 323 206,446 11.7% Lewis 770 493,103 27.9% Mason 206 132,146 7.5% Pacific 66 42,040 2.4% Cowlitz 8 5,427 0.3% Jefferson 2 1,259 0.07% Wahkiakum .1 37 0.002% Total 2,766 1,770,169 Source: Chehalis Watershed GIS Watershed Boundaries The basin is bounded on the west by the Pacific Ocean, on the east by the Deschutes River Basin, on the north by the Olympic Mountains, and on the south by the Willapa Hills and Cowlitz River Basin. Elevations vary from sea level at Grays Harbor to the 5,054-foot Capitol Peak in the Olympic National Forest. The basin consists of approximately 2,766 square miles. The Chehalis WRIA 22 River system flows through three distinct eco-regions before emptying into Grays Harbor near Aberdeen (Omernik, 1987): • The Cascade ecoregion (including the Olympic Mountains) is char- acterized by volcanic/sedimentary bedrock formations.

Dr. Lyman (1988) noted that the view that mountain goat were not native to the Olympic Peninsula is based on an absence of biological reports, absence of historical and ethnographic records, and lack of archaeofaunal evidence of pre-1920s presence of the species in this region.
