Multicultural Student Services
Native American Achievement Program
Philosophy
In keeping
with the Native American backgrounds of the
students, the NAAP is designed with the wisdom
of the Native American traditional elders and
leaders in mind. The NAAP supports a holistic
and balanced approach to the growth and
development of each student in school and life.
This includes the physical, intellectual,
emotional/social, and spiritual/cultural
(P.I.E.S.) growth.
Goals
-
NAAP will assist with the transition of
the participating students by creating an
environment that emphasizes involvement,
inclusion and identification with the ASU
community.
-
NAAP will provide assistance by
identifying accessible academic and
personal development services for
participating students.
-
NAAP will endeavor to enhance awareness
of career development among these
students.
-
NAAP will generally provide assistance to
scholarship recipients to ease any
difficulty in understanding the ASU
system.
-
NAAP and the participating tribes will
discuss/develop strategies and, to the
extent permitted by law, advocate changes
to the accessibility, retention and
education opportunities for tribal
students at postsecondary institutions.
