If you are a mentor for Native students, please keep in mind that some students are staying connected with their ways of life. Not all, bc forced assimilation has led to some Natives being removed from land and family, so not every Native needs time like this.

I spent most of 30 years in the Lower '48 earning my degrees and getting training. During grad school I only had the funding and time to return every 3 years, on average. I've only been home in the winter once in the last 20 years, when my aunt died. Subsistence living is year round. I missed a lot.
