Native American Studies Representatives Explore Collaboration through WICHE ICE

Faculty and administrators from Native American Studies (NAS) programs at institutions in five WICHE states (ID, MT, NM, OR, WY) met in Boulder, October 17-18, to discuss ways they could use WICHE ICE to make more online courses in NAS content areas available to their students. The group explored interests in sharing extra capacity in existing online courses as well as collaborating in the development of future certificates and concentrations to be offered online. Ongoing discussions are planned and other institutions with NAS programs are invited to join in. Contact Pat Shea, ICE Director, for more information.
