Indigenous students remain one of the least represented populations
in higher education. They continue to account for only one percent
of the total post-secondary student population, and this lack of
representation is felt in multiple ways beyond enrollment. Less
research money is spent studying Indigenous students, and their
interests are often left out of projects that otherwise purport to
address diversity in higher education. Recently, Native scholars
have started to reclaim research through the development of their
own research methodologies and paradigms that are based in tribal
knowledge systems and values, and that allow inherent Indigenous
knowledge and lived experiences to strengthen the research.
Reclaiming Indigenous Research in Higher Education highlights the
current scholarship emerging from these scholars of higher
education. From understanding how Native American students make
their way through school, to tracking tribal college and university
transfer students, this book allows Native scholars to take center
stage, and shines the light squarely on those least represented
among us.
