Tom Ball , Vice President of the Native American porgram at the U of O in Eugene, will be our guest on KBOO radio station, for this week's "Tillicum Wawa" show on Thursday 2-21-13.
Tom Ball, Emillio Henandez of the Latino programs and Carla Gary of the African American programs have been replaced by a "single position' for all of these minority programs, by Yvette Alex-Assensah . She was appointed by the President of the U of O.
This is an outrage to these people who have dedicated years at developing the programs for and of minority students at the University of Oregon.. The lack of these minority leaders will , at the very least, discourage other minorities from enrolling in the U of O.
This show will be a very interesting and give us a clear look at what is happening inside the politics at the U of O. And also how this will affect the Native American population there, in Oregon and the entire NW education system.
We will hopefully find out how we Natve Americans and all of our wonderful listeners can do to rectify this problem.
