Program Description
The Evergreen State College Reservation Based Community Determined program serves students with 90 or more college credits who want to work towards a Bachelor of Arts degree. Admittance to this upper division bachelor’s degree program requires that students live or work on a reservation or have social or cultural ties to a tribal community. Students attend classes two nights a week at the Muckleshoot Tribal College and four Saturdays per quarter at the Evergreen campus Longhouse. Core courses emphasize tribal management and leadership, Federal Indian policies and law, social services and environmental and cultural sustainability. Saturday class offerings are broad and have included Theater, Creative writing, Organizational Theory, Coast Salish Art and learning through Native Case Studies.
