From Boarding Schools to Suspension Boards
From Boarding Schools to Suspension Boards: Suspensions and Expulsions of Native American Students in California Public Schools is a report resulting from a collaboration by researchers from the Sacramento Native American Higher Education Collaborative (SNAHEC) and the Community College Equity Assessment Lab (CCEAL) at San Diego State University (SDSU): “It is deeply unjust for schools to be complicit in the continued oppression of our youth, and I hope this report starts conversations between Native educators and school systems to address these disparities.” (September 2019)

20 Best Deal for Colleges on Native American Studies
#2 - American Indian Studies at San Francisco State University (2016)
San Francisco State University, a large institution in the heart of the city, is committed to combining strong academics with opportunities for personal development. Among the College’s 118 majors is the Bachelor of Arts degree in American Indian Studies (AIS). The primary scope of this degree is to give students an understanding of the complex history, social issues, and politics of the Native American people. Outside of the classroom, students on the AIS track have the chance to work with local community groups. One of these groups is the American Indian Child Resource Center (AICRC), a respected nonprofit that serves Native families in need.
