Abstract

Native Americans continue to be one of the lowest represented ethnic groups in postsecondary education and present some of the lowest retention/graduation rates of any group. In the interest of supporting all students, this study examines Native American students’ notions of success as well as their academic and personal experiences in a majority serving institution of higher education. Narrative Analysis and Iktomi stories are used to examine the Native student experience and the resources these students seek out as they navigate their academic and career goals.
