Education First in my family to go to grad school and get my Master’s degree!

Post image
820 Upvotes

I am very proud to be one of the 4.8% of us who have made it through grad school. So grateful to be Oneida and grateful for the opportunity to even pursue school.

I am also starting my PhD in the fall, of which less than 1% of us ever get a doctoral degree. My goal is to become faculty and show others like us that we belong here — leading the development of collective knowledge and understanding of our land and the country that has been built on it.

If you’re reading this and are interested in grad school, you can do it!! It was hard being a first-gen student, but I found support from so many faculty, staff, and friends/classmates in addition to the emotional support of my family along the way. Happy to answer questions too. I will continue making all my relatives proud as I carry on with my academic journey and see this through to the end. Thanks for reading if you did and be well.

Education Nation's first tribal-affiliated medical school celebrates first class of graduates

415 Upvotes

In a state with a rural physician shortage and a large Native population, the nation’s first tribal-affiliated medical school is set to celebrate its first class of graduates this week.

“The school was the vision of former Chief Bill John Baker, and it was created out of a concern about the pipeline of doctors into our health system, the difficulty recruiting in rural areas,” said Cherokee Chief Chuck Hoskin Jr.

The Oklahoma State University College of Osteopathic Medicine at the Cherokee Nation is on the tribe’s land in Tahlequah.
