AN HISTORICAL ANALYSIS OF NATIVE AMERICAN HIGHER EDUCATION INSTITUTIONS IN THE UNITED ST ATES by CARY MICHAEL CARNEY Bachelor of Arts University of Tulsa Tulsa, Oklahoma 1969 Master of Business Administration Oklahoma State University Stillwater, Oklahoma 1992 Submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate College of the Oklahoma State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Degree of DOCTOR OF EDUCATION May, 1998 COPYRIGHT By Cary Michael Carney May, 1998 AN HISTORICAL ANALYSIS OF NATIVE AMERICAN HIGHER EDUCATION INSTITUTIONS IN THE UNITED STATES Thesis Approved Thesis Advisor oer;(H~ ii PREFACE Many phases of Native American education have been given extensive and adequate historical treatment. Works are plentiful on the boarding school program, the mission school efforts, and other select aspects of Native American education. Higher education for Indians, however, has received little attention. Select articles, passages, and occasional chapters touch on it, but usually only regarding selected topics or as an adjunct to education in general. There is no thorough and comprehensive history of Native American higher education in the United States. It is hoped this study will satisfy such a need, and prompt others to strive to advance knowledge and analysis in this area and to improve on what is presented here. The scope of this study is higher education for the Indian community, specifically within the continental United States, from the age of discovery to the present. Although, strictly speaking, the colonial period predates the United States, the society and culture of the nation as well as several of its more prominent universities stem from that period. -
The Oxen at Naches Pass
78 News Department The Washington Historical Quarterly extends welcome to the new association and cherishes the hope that the "British Columbia Historical Quarterly" may soon make its appearance. The Oxen at Naches Pass In "Van Ogle's Memory of Pioneer Days," which appeared in the Washington Historical Quarterly for October, 1922, the old pioneer was shown (pages 269-270) to differ with George H. Himes, the eminent historical authority of Oregon, about the fam ous story of killing oxen at Naches Pass in order to make raw hide ropes, with which to let the immigrant wagons down what was called "the jumping-off place." Mr. Himes promptly took ex ception to such criticism of his historical work and painstaking efforts at accuracy as follows: "I just saw your October Quarterly and read Van Ogle's account. A lot of what he gave Miss Judson is an after thought. There was not a single wagon driven down from the summit with a team attached, even one yoke. I began the preparation of my article, as printed in the Transactions of the Oregon Pioneer As sociation, 1907, fully twenty-five years before that, at the request of James Biles, one day when I was his guest at Tumwater. "'Why, Mr. Biles,' I said, 'I am not the person to write an account of that trip through the Naches Pass. Some one or more of the adults otIght to do it. I was nothing but a 1.oy and am not positive about the facts. I remember many of the details of the trip-that is, I think I remember them.' Finally, upon Mr. -

OFFICERS OF THE EXECUTIVE BRANCH OF THE GOVERNMENT [ 1 ] EXPLANATORY NOTE A Cabinet officer is not appointed for a fixed term and does not necessarily go out of office with the President who made the appointment. While it is customary to tender one’s resignation at the time a change of administration takes place, officers remain formally at the head of their department until a successor is appointed. Subordinates acting temporarily as heads of departments are not con- sidered Cabinet officers, and in the earlier period of the Nation’s history not all Cabinet officers were heads of executive departments. The names of all those exercising the duties and bearing the respon- sibilities of the executive departments, together with the period of service, are incorporated in the lists that follow. The dates immediately following the names of executive officers are those upon which commis- sions were issued, unless otherwise specifically noted. Where periods of time are indicated by dates as, for instance, March 4, 1793, to March 3, 1797, both such dates are included as portions of the time period. On occasions when there was a vacancy in the Vice Presidency, the President pro tem- pore is listed as the presiding officer of the Senate. The Twentieth Amendment to the Constitution (effective Oct. 15, 1933) changed the terms of the President and Vice President to end at noon on the 20th day of January and the terms of Senators and Representatives to end at noon on the 3d day of January when the terms of their successors shall begin.
