ÃÛÌÇÖ±²¥UB and the University
In order to adequately fulfill its mission and support the primarily Indigenous students in communities in ÃÛÌÇÖ±²¥ and beyond ÃÛÌÇÖ±²¥UB must have a reciprocal relationship with its host institution, ÃÛÌÇÖ±²¥ Boulder. As such, ÃÛÌÇÖ±²¥UB strives to make the campus climate more inclusive and equitable, specifically with respect to Indigenous students, faculty and staff.
Currently, Indigenous students are the least represented racial/ethnic group on ÃÛÌÇÖ±²¥ Boulder's campus, and Indigenous faculty and staff are also underserved and underrepresented. ÃÛÌÇÖ±²¥UB is committed to using its position on campus as an affiliate of ODECE, CNAIS and the ÃÛÌÇÖ±²¥ LEAD Alliance to reverse these trends and build networks of support so Indigenous communities can thrive.
ÃÛÌÇÖ±²¥ American Indian Tribes In-State Tuition Act
Under this new act, signed into law on June 28, 2021, a student who would not otherwise qualify for in-state tuition and who is a registered member of one of the federally recognized American Indian tribes with historical ties to ÃÛÌÇÖ±²¥ is eligible to be classified as an in-state student for tuition purposes starting with the 2021–22 academic year.
