                          COMMUNITY COLLEGES 

     WHEREAS: Indian Tribes are responsible for the social,

     WHEREAS: There is a desperate need for vocational and

     that cannot leave or go away to school; and  

     WHEREAS: Congress enacted P.L. 95-471 entitled: "The

     1978", to assist tribes in providing post secondary 
     educational opportunity for its members; and  

     WHEREAS: Tribal colleges have been established on the 
     Flathead, Blackfeet, Fort Peck, Crow, Northern Cheyenne and 
     Lummi Indian Reservations;  and  

     WHEREAS: These colleges have shown immediate growth by 
     fulfilling the need on the reservation for relevant training 
     in tribal government, tribal resource management, business 
     management, and tribal staff development;  and  
     
     WHEREAS: Sufficient appropriation of funds is necessary for 
     the continued support and development of these colleges; and 
     
     THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED: That the Affiliated Tribes of 
     Northwest Indians urge Congress to introduce and enact 
     legislation extending the "Tribally Controlled Community 
     College Assistance Act of 1978". 
     
     BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED: The Affiliated Tribes of Northwest 
     Indians urge the Administration to support legislation 
     extending the "Tribally Controlled Community College Act of 
     1978". 
     
                             CERTIFICATION

     meeting of the Executive Council of the Affiliated Tribes of
