Institutional Mission and Goals Fort Belknap College (FBC) is a tribally controlled community college located on the Fort Belknap Indian Reservation in northcentral Montana. The college was chartered in 1984 by the Fort Belknap Indian Community Council, which serves as the governing body of the Gros Ventre (White Clay) and Assiniboine (Nakoda) Tribes of the Fort Belknap Reservation. Fort Belknap College is accredited at the associates degree level by the Northwest Association of Schools and Colleges and Universities (NWASCU), Commission on Colleges and Universities. The college is incorporated within the State of Montana and recognized by the Internal Revenue Service as a tax exempt 501(c)(3) educational institution. The following statements of FBC’s institutional mission, goals and philosophy provide the basis for the planning, development and implementation of all college programs and activities. Institutional Mission Statement The mission of Fort Belknap College is to provide quality post-secondary education for residents of the Fort Belknap Indian Reservation and surrounding communities. The college will help individuals improve their lives by offering them the opportunity to maintain the cultural integrity of the Gros Ventre and Assiniboine Tribes as well as succeed in American technological society. 3 Institutional Goals The goals of Fort Belknap College are: • to provide vocational education, internships, academic, cultural, and community programs, transferable courses, and degrees; • to enhance Gros Ventre and Assiniboine cultural development; • to assist tribal institutions and departments in staff preparation, planning, research, and evaluation services; • to use valid research methods to measure the needs, talents and aspirations of the Gros Ventre and Assiniboine people and design educational programs to meet them; • to maintain an open admissions policy; and • to provide leadership and training for those who pursue and promote the economic and community development of the Fort Belknap Reservation. Institutional Philosophy Adherence to the educational philosophy of the Assiniboine and Gros Ventre Tribes leads the Board, administration, staff and students to: value the abiding relevance of Gros Ventre and Assiniboine culture; recognize equality among all people and diversity within the Fort Belknap College campus and communities; exercise active and ongoing leadership; retain qualified staff sensitive to student and community needs; pursue lifelong inter-generational learning; promote family involvement in education; maintain the will to meet every person’s and each community’s needs; and recognize the importance of spirituality in everything the college does. 4 Reviewed on a regular basis, these statements of the college’s mission, goals and philosophy were last revised and approved by the College Board of Directors in 1998. B. Academic Programs & Students Body Characteristics In accordance with its mission, philosophy and goals, Fort Belknap College offers associate degrees in the following areas of study: Allied Health, Business, Business- Entrepreneurship, Business-Health Administration, Early Childhood Education, Elementary Education, Human Services, Human Services-Criminal Justice, Liberal Arts, Liberal Arts-Native American Studies, Microcomputer Operations, and Natural Resources. Along with completing their selected program’s core requirements, students must also complete a series of general education requirements in the areas of natural science, social science, fine arts/humanities, public speaking, native language, mathematics, writing, and computers. Students must earn a minimum of 90 quarter credits in order to graduate. Data characterizing the composition of the Fort Belknap College student body according to gender and race over the past ten years are presented in Table 1 below. Approximately 95% of all FBC students are of American Indian descent. Non-traditional students make up a significant portion of the FBC student body, as indicated by an average age of 30 years old (as compared to the national average of 23). In addition, most students are low income (defined as membership in a family whose income is less than 50% of the poverty level), with 95% of the current student body qualifying for some form of federal financial aid. In fact, according to the college’s Financial Aid Officer, nearly 70% of all students have greater than $2,000 of unmet financial need. Eighty percent of students enrolled at FBC are first generation college students. 5 Table 1 Fort Belknap College Student Characteristics 10 year Span (Fall 1992-Spring 2002) # Quarter Year Male Female Total ISC FTE 1 Fall 1992 51 181 232 201.9 175.0 Winter 1993 55 122 177 174.4 148.2 Spring 1993 37 151 188 141.2 129.3 2 Fall 1993 48 122 170 187.4 157.5 Winter 1994 66 116 182 189.5 162.7 Spring 1994 63 125 192 175.5 160.2 3 Fall 1994 60 130 190 178.9 145.9 Winter 1995 81 191 272 185.2 158.9 Spring 1995 82 163 245 164.6 148.5 4 Fall 1995 74 125 199 174.2 153.3 Winter 1996 74 115 189 155.0 145.8 Spring 1996 84 102 172 142.9 130.6 5 Fall 1996 66 107 173 152.6 139.6 Winter 1997 106 191 297 143.3 134.1 Spring 1997 152 159 311 159.9 152.1 6 6 Fall 1997 64 136 200 137.8 133.2 Winter 1998 89 159 248 151.4 145.0 Spring 1998 75 150 225 126.8 125.8 7 Fall 1998 68 115 183 145.1 137.1 Winter 1999 56 124 180 134.0 128.9 Spring 1999 84 209 293 153.2 146.5 8 Fall 1999 74 194 268 149.2 138.9 Winter 2000 79

  • Coordination and Related Constructions in Omaha-Ponca and in Siouan Languages Catherine Rudin
    Chapter 15 Coordination and related constructions in Omaha-Ponca and in Siouan languages Catherine Rudin Syntactic constructions expressing semantic coordination vary widely across the Siouan language family. A case study of possible coordinating conjunctions in Omaha-Ponca demonstrates that distinguishing coordination from other means of expressing ‘and’ relations is a non-trivial problem. A survey of words translated as ‘and,’ ‘or,’ or ‘but’ in Siouan languages leads to the conclusion that neither co- ordinating conjunctions nor the syntactic structures containing them are recon- structable across the Siouan family. It is likely that Proto-Siouan lacked syntactic coordination. 1 Introduction All languages have ways of expressing additive, disjunctive, and adversative rela- tions among entities or propositions. In European languages these relations are expressed by two distinct syntactic means: coordination and subordination. In Siouan languages these two types of conjunction construction are also present, but the distinction between them is less robust and less clear; coordination may not have existed at all historically. Neither coordinating conjunctions (‘and,’ ‘or,’ ‘but’) nor the syntactic structures containing them are reconstructable across the Siouan family. I begin this examination of coordination in Siouan by defining coordination and discussing some of the issues involved in distinguishing coordinate from subordinate conjunction (§2). This is followed in§3 by a case study of additive coordination and coordinate-like constructions in Omaha-Ponca, the Siouan lan- guage with which I am most familiar. §4 is a survey of available data on coor- dination across all branches and most of the languages in the Siouan language family, with a summary table.

    The Southern Algonquians and Their Neighbours DAVID H. PENTLAND University of Manitoba INTRODUCTION At least fifty named Indian groups are known to have lived in the area south of the Mason-Dixon line and north of the Creek and the other Muskogean tribes. The exact number and the specific names vary from one source to another, but all agree that there were many different tribes in Maryland, Virginia and the Carolinas during the colonial period. Most also agree that these fifty or more tribes all spoke languages that can be assigned to just three language families: Algonquian, Iroquoian, and Siouan. In the case of a few favoured groups there is little room for debate. It is certain that the Powhatan spoke an Algonquian language, that the Tuscarora and Cherokee are Iroquoians, and that the Catawba speak a Siouan language. In other cases the linguistic material cannot be positively linked to one particular political group. There are several vocabularies of an Algonquian language that are labelled Nanticoke, but Ives Goddard (1978:73) has pointed out that Murray collected his "Nanticoke" vocabulary at the Choptank village on the Eastern Shore, and Heckeweld- er's vocabularies were collected from refugees living in Ontario. Should the language be called Nanticoke, Choptank, or something else? And if it is Nanticoke, did the Choptank speak the same language, a different dialect, a different Algonquian language, or some completely unrelated language? The basic problem, of course, is the lack of reliable linguistic data from most of this region. But there are additional complications. It is known that some Indians were bilingual or multilingual (cf.

Most represent traditional stories told by elders, but some are based on historical events. Although they are Basal Readers for teaching the Assiniboine and Gros Ventre languages at the Primary level, even Secondary students can appreciate the themes, conflicts, and traditions which they portray. When a Native first-grade teacher on the Ft. Peck Reservation used these books, she read the story in Assiniboine and then explained to her Sioux students that this language represents the Nakota dialect of the language their people speak. The students enjoyed hearing and reading the stories themselves, and then they participated in discussion and drawing activities developed from the suggested themes. -----. “Bandit the Racoon.” (Assiniboine) This story may be used at all levels to teach about the problems individuals experience when they live in one culture and misunderstand the rules of the alien culture. It also may be used to teach about the way individuals are judged by their appearance.

  • Subjects and Objects in Assiniboine Nakoda Shannon Louise West B.A
    Subjects and Objects in Assiniboine Nakoda Shannon Louise West B.A., University of Regina, 1998 A Thesis Submitted in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of MASTER OF ARTS in the Department of Linguistics 0 Shannon Louise West, 2003 University of Victoria All rights reserved. This thesis may not be reproduced in whole or in part, by photocopy or other means, without the permission of the author. Supervisor: Dr. Leslie Saxon Abstract The Assiniboine Nakoda language spoken by aboriginal peoples of southeastern Saskatchewan and northern Montana can be characterized as a language with configurational sentence structure and mixed argument type. Subjects and objects of the Nakoda verb are arranged hierarchically with respect to each other. Subjects c-command objects, but objects do not c-command subjects. The object is a sister to the verb, but the subject occupies a position outside of the Verb Phrase. This asymmetry between subjects and objects is evident in coordination constructions. Binding data also indicates an asymmetry that is not expected in a flat structure analysis. Subjects and objects are realized as Determiner Phrases or null pronominals (pro). Arguments are almost always realized as the null pronominal. 3rd person arguments may also appear as Determiner Phrases. Local arguments (1st and 2nd persons) are expressed in the form ofpro in agreement with person and number prefixes on the verb. Table of Contents ..
