Importance of Native Voices

Description
-
The article from October of 1969 notes how in the 200-year history of the College, “only a dozen” Native students graduated from Dartmouth. Without a Native American voice on campus, the symbol became “the major personification of the spirit [of the College.]” In the 1969-1970 school year, the four Native Americans on campus—three of whom were freshmen admitted after the College reaffirmed its commitment to educating Native students—began the fight against the symbol.
