Haskell Indian Nations University - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Haskell Indian Nations University is a four year degree granting university in Lawrence, Kansas which offers free tuition to members of registered Native American tribes in the United States. Haskell was formed as the United States Indian Industrial Training School in Lawrence, Kansas, in 1884.

haskell.html Haskell Indian Nations University, the only four-year Native American university in the country, has grown over the last century from a school designed to assimilate Indian children into the white culture to a fully accredited university that celebrates the diversity and culture of the dozens of federally-recognized Indian tribes throughout the country. The government used Haskell and similar boarding schools elsewhere in an effort to indoctrinate young Indians in the "civilized" ways of the white man. The children were separated from their homes and families and they were forbidden to speak their native languages or practice their native religion. The federally financed university traces its roots to one of the bitterest legacies of the Indian wars of the 19th century, which followed white migrations west and the confiscation of Native American lands. old.lawrence.com /lawrence_guide/haskell.html   (1049 words)
