Give me Answers for CommonLit assesment, HOW NATIVE STUDENTS CAN SUCCEED IN COLLEGE: 'BE AS TOUGH AS THE LAND THAT MADE YOU
Answers
Answer:
The hurdles Native American teenagers face in and out of school are daunting. College Horizons, a small organization based in New Mexico, has proven they're not insurmountable.
Every year, the group sponsors week-long retreats on college campuses for teenagers from some of the more than 500 federally-recognized tribes in the U.S.
One of those retreats was at Lawrence University in Appleton, Wis., where 85 students gathered along with dozens of admissions officers from some of the nation's most selective universities.
The week kicked off with a boisterous rendition of the College Horizons motto: "College pride, Native pride!" Then, one by one, students stood to say who they are and where they're from:
"I'm part of the Eagle and Fox clan ... "
"I'm from the Cheyenne River in South Dakota ... I am a descendant of Lakota Chief Red Horse ... "
"I'm a member of the Cherokee Nation in Oklahoma."
