1) Response to "Given Enough" [by Anonymous Citizen on October 15, 2008] American Indians have Sovereignty (Education included- Indian Self-Determination & Education Assistance Act of 1975) based on: what they have retained-not what has been "given". Nothing has been given to A.I. by the states or the federal government. Read a history book, might I suggest: "A People's History of the United States by: Howard Zinn. It would be a good place to start to educate yourself about a people that are the original, authentic first people of America. You belive too many myths and per-cap casino stories. Reply

3) Members do graduate from college.... [by Anonymous Citizen on August 27, 2008] We are proud members of the Wyandot of Anderdon and are behind our Chief Steven Gronda 100%.
He is a great and wise man with much to offer.
Our daughter Stephanie is going to graduate from Wayne State University this year into broadcast journalism.
Our son is in his second year at WSU also and will graduate in the coming years.
Our oldest son is currently serving America in the US ARMY and just returned from a tour of duty in IRAQ. He returned home a decorated veteran with a Bronze Star on his chest.
Without the tuition waiver 2 of our children may have never seen a university, we are very grateful for the chance to have our children go to college and receive higher education here in Michigan.
Many Thanks to the state of Michigan, many more to our chief Steven Gronda.
