Greetings in the languages of Ojibwe / Potawatomi / Menominee / Ho-Chunk / Oneida / Mohican – All the nations of Wisconsin!

The American Indian Student Center provides you a circle of support, connecting you not only with on-campus resources but also local opportunities. Center staff can answer your questions about academics, financial aid, internships, and research opportunities. It’s a welcoming place to socialize with others in the Native community. You also help play an integral part in planning campus programming that educates students, faculty, staff, and community members about American Indian culture and current issues.
