Roots of Wisdom will be on campus from March 18 – May 24
Local ecosystems around the world face serious environmental challenges. Many Native communities have found innovative solutions by combining traditional knowledge with modern science. Roots of Wisdom: Native Knowledge. Shared Science features stories of ecological and cultural restoration from the Confederated Tribes of the Umatilla Indian Reservation, Tulalip Tribes, Eastern Band of Cherokee Indians, and Native Hawaiians.
Volunteers are needed to be present while the exhibit is on campus – in Meyer Library. Please encourage students to volunteer! All volunteers need to sign up for at least two hours! This link will take you to the complete list of dates and times available: http://bit.ly/MSU-Roots.
