Origins
Diné College is governed by an eightmember Board of Regents including one
student representative from the Associated
Students of Diné College (ASDC).
The Navajos have a long history of being
dedicated to education for their people. A
few days before his death in 1893, the
great chief, Hastiin Ch'il Haajini
(Manuelito) said, "My grandchild, education is the ladder. Tell our people to take
it." For the past five decades, the Navajos
have allocated a relatively large proportion
of their efforts and resources to improving
educational opportunities for their tribal
members.
The Board is responsible for establishing
strategic direction for the College, approving institutional policies, reviewing and
approving the Annual Unrestricted General
Fund Budget, supervising the College
President, and reporting to the Navajo
Nation through the Health, Education &
Human Services (HEHS) Committee.
Members of the Board invigorate the College’s governance process by successfully
advocating the interests of the College at
the Navajo, federal and state levels.
Through sustained public outreach to
diverse constituencies, the Board ensures
that higher education remains a top priority
within the Navajo Nation.

In 1968, the Navajo Tribe took a momentous step toward educational selfdetermination of Indians by establishing
Navajo Community College (now Diné
College.) This landmark institution was an
innovative means to meet the long unmet
post-secondary educational needs of
Native Americans. The Navajo Nation
sought to create an institution of higher
education that encouraged Navajo youth to
become contributing members of the
Navajo Nation and the world. Today, Diné
College serves a predominantly Navajo
student population across the 26,000
square miles of the Navajo Nation that
spans across the states of Arizona, New

Math Camp Challenges Students
In 2015, a two-week Math Camp was hosted by Diné College that gave students the
opportunity to learn new and interesting
mathematics skills, while enjoying a
camper’s lifestyle. The Baa Hozhó Math
Camp was organized by the Math Endorsement Class under the direction of the
Center for Diné Teacher Education.
The camp schedule included many engaging math-related activities for the campers.
In between sessions, students participated
in Diné cultural activities, as well as physical and social activities, such as games and
sports. Students were encouraged to work
on problem sets, analytical reasoning,
communication skills, and complete problem solving strategies.

placed on the subject, data is gathered to
determine seizure on-set. Oleksandr's research hopes to prove that by increasing the
number of rings on the electrode, a much
richer set of data can be gathered, thus leading to better detection of seizure on-set. Ultimately, his research will benefit the field of

Diné College Ranks 2nd Among
670 Community Colleges
17 key metrics, ranging from the cost of instate tuition and fees to student-faculty ratio.
The College was featured in ‘2015’s Best
& Worst Community Colleges,’ an online
study by WalletHub which compared 670
community colleges across the country.
Diné College was ranked number one in
the State of Arizona and second best
among community colleges in the United
States. Criteria associated with the online
study included cost of in-state tuition and
fees as well as student-faculty ratios. The
College ranked number one in ‘Lowest
Student-Loan Default Rate.’
Jill Gonzalez with WalletHub said the Arizona school’s in-state tuition of $725 dollars
per year is the lowest in the country, putting
students on solid ground when they finish
school. “Not only were they number one in
terms of cost and financing and affordability, but they were also number one in terms
of career outcomes, which means students
are graduating with great jobs and they’re
leaving with no student debt whatsoever,”
Gonzalez said. For more information, please
visit: http://wallethub.com/edu/best-worstcommunity-colleges/15076/)
In order to identify the best and worst
community colleges in the U.S., WalletHub compared 670 such institutions
across four key dimensions, including: 1)
Cost & Financing, 2) Classroom Experience, 3) Education Outcomes and 4) Career Outcomes. Due to data limitations,
WalletHub was not able to include all of
the more than 1,100 member colleges of

Diné College Awarded $8.8 Million
Capital Improvement Grant
Diné College is the recipient of $8.8 million
Title III Capital Grant from the U.S. Department of Education. The grant is intended to,
“Support student success by engaging in
planning, design and renovation/new construction activities at the College’s main
campus in Tsaile, AZ,” according to Cameron Daines, Vice President for Institutional
Advancement and author of the grant.
The HLC Team examined a wide range of
processes and performance including
mission, integrity (ethical and responsible
conduct), teaching and learning (quality,
resources and support), teaching and learning
(evaluation
and
improvement),
resources, planning and institutional
effectiveness. The HLC Team also examined Federal compliance factors. The final
HLC Report was submitted in July 2015 to
the HLC’s Institutional Actions Council for
final review and approved in September.
The HLC Report identifies a majority (91%)
of the criteria for re-affirmation of accreditation as “Met” with no concerns, and confirms that the College is compliant with federal regulations associated with higher education.
The 5-year capital campus development
grant lists three major focus areas for improvement: Life/Safety Standards, Enhancement of Student Learning Environments,
Establish a Robust IT Infrastructure. The
grant will be awarded at $1.7 million per
year beginning in FY 2016.
Areas of focus include:
 Renovation of the Ned Hatathli Center
 Extension of fiber optic lines to the

their quality of life. DPI commits itself to
conducting high-quality, independent research – grounded in Fundamental Diné
Law. Based on that research, DPI provides
innovative, practical recommendations that
strengthens the Navajo government; and
fosters the economic and social welfare and
opportunity of all Navajos. DPI is tackling
issues impacting Navajo traditional and contemporary life, such as LGBQT, wage gaps,
sovereignty, and language preservation.
During the program, four student teams are
paired with a Navajo elder. The teams
conduct personal research, interview the
elders, create an audio recording and video
recording and photographically document
the interviews. Students then transcribe the
interviews, write scripts, proof read and
edit. Student teams also participate in a
service project for their assigned elder,
which includes assisting with necessary
repairs or home projects.

Since taking the reigns as Director earlier
this summer, Benally has been busy gathering data, conducting research, and planning
symposiums. DPI is currently tackling issues
that skate a fine line between mainstream
hot topics and issues normally taboo in

the multiple pressure points where mainstream meets the Navajo Nation. According
to DPI, these points are exactly where the
majority of Navajo youth and working families experience relevant and quality-of-life
issues today.
Sheep Is Life Celebration held in Tsaile
Dine Be' Iiná Inc. and Diné College have
continued their partnership in hosting the
Annual Sheep is Life celebration filled with
workshops and lectures focused on the Navajo sheep culture and spirituality. Sheep Is
Life was held June 19-20, 2015 at the Diné
College Campus in Tsaile.
Sheep is Life is a gathering for all weavers,
artists and those who love sheep, wool, fiber
arts and the diverse cultures that have maintained these lifeways for thousands of years.
Sheep is Life also focuses on the role of
raising awareness on the role of the NavajoChurro sheep in the evolution of Navajo
weaving.
Diné Policy Institute Emerges as Leader
in Tribal Research and Analysis
The Diné Policy Institute (DPI) was established in 2006 under the leadership of former Diné College administration and a

Lady Warriors Bring Home Second
National Title in Seven Years
Syracuse, NY - On November 7, 2014, the
United States Collegiate Athletic Association (USCAA) held its Cross Country
National Championships in Syracuse, New
York. With overwhelming support from
family members, Diné College’s Women’s
Cross Country Team “the Lady Warriors”
took home the National Championship.
The Lady Warriors won their first ever
USCAA Women’s Cross Country National
Championship in 2007.
“Winning a National Championship is a
monumental achievement for the College.
Our student athletes continue a tradition
that we are recognized for nationally,” said
Academic Dean Abraham Bitok, former
Athletic Director for Diné College. “It’s
great to see our student athletes perform
and earn accolades at this level. They return to their native homeland as rolemodels in each of their communities.
That’s what we strive for at Diné College.”
school at no cost to the students. The Dual
Credit program is popular because it allows
high school students to get a jump-start in
gaining college credits. In early 2014, Arizona Representative Jamescita Peshlakai (D)
introduced stand-alone dual credit legislation. In early March 2015, the legislation
passed that allows Diné College and two
other Arizona Tribal Colleges & Universities (TCU’s) Tohono O'Odham Community
College (TOCC) and Navajo Technical College (NTU) to create and fund dual credit
programs specifically for their own institutions. Once the initial dual credit legislation
was signed into law, further Arizona legislation was passed providing funding for the
program with unclaimed lottery money.
Those funds are used to offset the $55 per
credit hour cost for high school students to
enroll in college courses at the TCU’s.
New Mexico State Senator John Pinto (D)
championed the dual credit legislation in
2011 for the state’s consortium of TCU’s to
offer dual credit programs. Funding for the
New Mexico TCU programs is provided
through the state’s “Tribal College Dual
Credit Program Fund” and uses the same
$55 per credit hour rate for students.

Computer Science A.S., Environmental Science B.S., Secondary Education Math B.S.,
and Math Science Secondary Education Certification B.S. Innovative instruction will
consist of a focus on local place-based and
inquiry-based knowledge.
Diné College is the recipient of $8.3 million
Title III Program Grant from the U.S.
Department of Education. The College will

they receive concurrent academic credits for the course(s) from
both the College and the high school.

High school students must be juniors or seniors, have a GPA
of 2.50 or higher or have the principal/guidance counselor’s
approval, and meet the enrollment requirements of the Diné
