ii Message from the President

Yá’át’ééh!

Welcome to the first tribal college in the country- Diné College! For more than 40 years Diné College has been educating thousands of Diné and non-Diné students from across the country and the world.

In this historic year at Diné College, we are implementing our first Bachelor of Arts degree in Elementary Teacher Education and have added 36 hours of upper undergraduate courses in Diné Studies which are not available at other institutions. These courses expand the diverse list of subjects we currently offer like culture and language, health, social work, business, humanities, mathematics, science, history, political science, and computers.

At Diné College we not only offer quality learning at an affordable cost but also the knowledge to achieve a balanced education through our philosophy of Sa’2h Naagh17 Bik’eh H0zh00n. This unique and invaluable philosophy is the foundation of Diné life and a path to lifelong success in education, family, health and well being, and spirituality.

I thank you for choosing Diné College, it truly is a great place to start and a great place to get your degree. I wish you a great academic year that is intellectually stimulating.

Axéhee’,

iv Message from the Board of Regents

Diné College invites you to join the many students who are taking advantage of the unique opportunities the College offers to its students. You are most welcome to Diné College “where your future begins.” The College staff and faculty are most willing to help you with the differ- ent support services as well as provide you individual advisement to map out a program that fits your need and desire. They are ready to serve you and please don’t hesitate to use their services and advice. This year’s catalog is an instrument prepared for your use and trust you will use it to design your program. One of the priorities of the is education. As such, it has become very important to not only the Navajo Nation, but also to each and every household across the reservation to encourage their young people to pursue an education. The Nation recognizes there are many talented young people in our schools as evidenced by their achievement of different academic and extra curricular activities recognition and awards. Diné College wishes to invite these achievers to come to Diné College for a unique and unparallel education and life experience. Additionally, the Navajo Nation recognizes those young and talented people who may not have been publicly recognized with awards in high school but have great potential. Diné College’s door is also open to these students so they may expand their potential in meeting the college challenge but most important a rewarding career waiting at the end. The Navajo Nation is impacted by the declining economy that is sweeping across the country. Thus, education becomes of greatest importance and we, the Diné College Board of Regents, urge you to take a giant step for yourself and family for a better future by continuing your education. We wish you the best in your endeavors. Fannie L.
