Silver City, NM- The Native American Club planned a special fundraiser to experience a trip to Standing Rock, New Mexico. Each member of the Club contributed their time to cook and sell Indian tacos. These tasty tacos placed smiles upon students’ and the community’s faces. The taco sale was a part of WNMU’s Native American Week, in celebration of Native American month! The week is filled with cultural foods and fun ways to get students involved with Native Pride.
Scott Fritz, Associate Professor of History and one of three advisors of the Native American Club explains, “The Native American Center provides a reservation, away from the reservation. The Center would like to invite all students who would like to learn and participate in the Club.” This coming Friday, November 11th, Native students who have moccasins are encouraged to wear them in support of the Native American Club. For any information on the club or center, students may contact Scott Fritz at, scott.fritz@wnmu.edu.
