Haskell KS pow wow

 

This 1994 postcard celebrates the annual pow wow held at Haskell Indian Nations University in Lawrence, Kansas.

Haskell began as a Native boarding school in 1884, part of the federal program to assimilate Native youth with academic classes and manual training. In 1970 it was transformed into the Haskell Indian Junior College, and became a University in 1992.
