The University of Wisconsin Oshkosh is partnering with the Wind River Tribal College in Wyoming to offer the tribal college’s students the opportunity to earn accredited credits. The tribal college serves primarily nontraditional students from the Northern Arapaho and Eastern Shoshone tribes. One of the goals is to have Wind River students earn an associate’s degree at Wind River and come to UW Oshkosh for their bachelor’s degree. UW Oshkosh faculty and students also could use the central-Wyoming campus for field courses in the sciences, literature and creative writing. Two courses have been scheduled that will be shared via compressed video, allowing students at both campuses to interact throughout the semester.
