The Native American Enrichment Center fosters the learning of all Great Falls College students with a focus on Native American student success.
The center recently moved more to the heart of the college and is in the Sun River Wing in D162.
It offers a quiet, distraction-free area for studying with study rooms, a kitchen and a children’s play area.
It also offers computer/printing services and connections to other campus and community resources.
Great Falls College is located in the heart of Montana’s Tribal Nations and is surrounded by many reservations and state tribes, including:
- Assiniboine
- Blackfeet
- Chippewa Cree
- Crow
- Gros Ventre
- Kootenai
- Little Shell Chippewa
- Northern Cheyenne
- Pend d’Oreille
- Salish
- Sioux
Many of the college’s students are from these tribes, and Great Falls College is strongly committed to seeing all American Indian students succeed by providing academic support and services to improve American Indian retention, persistence and degree completion. Our campus community proudly embraces the Native American culture, heritage, values and beliefs.
As an American Indian student embarking on an academic career, there may be obstacles and barriers on the road to reaching your educational goals. Regardless of whether you are a traditional or non-traditional student, there are challenges and oftentimes one does not know where to turn. We are here to provide a supportive campus community and to help you identify campus resources, establish relationships with faculty and staff, and to model effective study strategies for success. We provide academic support, advocacy and leadership for all Native students.
