Report of the American Indian Student Advisor, Academic Year 1969-70.

The report of the Advisor to American Indian students covers 3 quarters of the academic year 1969-70 at Montana State University (MSU). During that period, the advisor worked on a 3/4 time basis to give help and guidance to American Indian students trying to finish a 4-year degree program. In preparation for this, the advisor visited 6 Montana reservations in August and September 1969 to meet with students who would attend MSU that fall. The most prevalent student problems were finances, low grades, dropping courses, and absenteeism. The document gave, for each quarter, the number of Indian students enrolled, counseling and tutorial services given, student activities, and end of quarter grades. (KM)
