Our Cullowhee, N.C. campus is at the heart of the spiritual and cultural homeland of the region's largest Native American population, the Eastern Band of Cherokee Indians.
Uniquely located amidst rich cultural and academic resources, our interdisciplinary program is multi-faceted. In partnership with the Cherokee community, we offer students and scholars a wide range of academic and support services.
