More than 90 elementary school students from three tribal schools spent a day at the Ä¢¹½ÊÓÆµ late last month, part of an unusual collaboration between college students and the tribes to inspire younger students to think about going to college.
The program, Native @ Ä¢¹½ÊÓÆµ, was sponsored by the Ä¢¹½ÊÓÆµâ€™s student government, Associated Students of Ä¢¹½ÊÓÆµ (ASÄ¢¹½ÊÓÆµ). Fifth- and sixth-graders from Wa He Lut Indian School in Olympia, Yakama Nation Tribal School in Yakima and Lummi Tribal Schools in Bellingham came to Seattle for the program.
