Cultural Vibrancy and Censorship

United Tribes Technical College values cultural vibrancy because it enriches the community and wealth of experiences that characterize a post-secondary education. Our students, faculty, and staff come from Tribal lands throughout the United States and Canada. Most of our students come from the northern plains region of the country, with approximately 70% representing the North Dakota tribes.

UTTC recognizes that cultural vibrancy encompasses much more than race, ethnicity or geography. Because students from many tribal nations are represented at UTTC, from a wide range of cultural and ethnic backgrounds, students are encouraged to share their own cultural practices, traditions and beliefs in the classroom to build a culturally responsive and welcoming community for all individuals and one from which we can learn from one another. We believe engagement with varied perspectives and ideas is critical to the education and growth of all people, and we value the unique experiences and viewpoints of all our community members.
