杜的印第安人和土著倡议

正规赌博十大平台排行非常重视我们的印第安人和土著社区成员. As such, we commit to reckoning with and learning from the University’s complex history and our founder John Evans's culpability in the 1864 Sand Creek Massacre, 继续影响该机构与美国原住民和土著社区的关系.

通过我们正在进行的美国原住民和土著倡议,正规赌博十大平台排行寻求:

  • 承认我们的建国与历史上定居者对纽特人的暴力有牵连。, Tsitsista (Cheyenne), 和伊诺诺伊诺(阿拉帕霍)民族
  • Acknowledge and understand how this institution has fallen short in providing sufficient support to our Native American and Indigenous community members—most especially in the context of our history
  • 优先考虑治愈美洲原住民和土著学生, staff, and faculty, now and into the future, 确保他们感到受欢迎, 在正规赌博十大平台排行得到全面支持和庆祝
  • Develop meaningful and reciprocal relationships with Denver and Colorado Native American and Indigenous community to further healing and increase equity on the DU campus and in the local community

这项工作直到2013年才真正开始 John Evans Study Committee 只得到了学校极少的支持. 通过委员会的研究, writing and outreach, 他们探索了大学的历史, 特别是我们建国时的情况. They also provided strategic recommendations for how DU could better engage and support Native American and Indigenous community members.

2016年,肖普校长成立了 印第安人包容性特别工作组which provided a detailed plan to build upon and expand the scope of the recommendations of the John Evans Committee.

In early 2017, 杜克大学与北夏安族建立了正式的伙伴关系, Southern Cheyenne, 和阿拉帕霍民族通过美洲原住民社区咨询委员会, which lead to 2018年4月,在德里斯科尔学生会升起国旗.

在2020年秋天,Haefner总理和其他DU领导人做出了 seven commitments ,以加强现有的措施, 建立问责制,建立动力.

我们的美洲原住民和土著的倡议还在继续. 这些举措包括通过支持和财政援助增加获得杜里大学教育的机会. 它们还包括解决印第安人和土著教职员工的招聘和保留问题, 在校园内建造沙溪大屠杀纪念馆, 以及一个永久性的室内展览,附带杜的历史课程, 并探索建立一个美洲原住民和土著研究中心, among other efforts.

This website will document all of this work and serve as a centralized location for updates on our progress to fulfill the commitments we have made to better engage and support DU’s Native American and Indigenous community members, partners and friends.
