The Third Native American Symposium: Stealing\/Steeling the Spirit: American Indian Identities<\/span><\/h3>\n

November 11-13, 1999<\/h4>\n

On behalf of Southeastern Oklahoma State University, welcome to our third Native American Symposium, Stealing\/Steeling the Spirit: American Indian Identities. Oklahoma\u2019s diverse Native American heritage offers a unique perspective on the studies of literature, film, history, sociology, anthropology, political science, psychology, and communications.<\/p>\n

The Native American symposium seeks to increase public understanding and appreciation of Native American culture in all its expressions. Varied special events offer many opportunities for communication, education, and pleasure.<\/p>\n

The conference planning committee has provided us with a unique experience to raise our level of consciousness regarding Native American culture. Their dedication to bringing this special event to our campus is indeed commendable.<\/p>\n

I hope you enjoy\u00a0Stealing\/Steeling the Spirit: American Indian Identities.<\/em><\/p>\n

Sincerely,<\/p>\n

Glen D. Johnson
