SDSU Wokini Initiative Addresses Low Native American Enrollment with Campus-Wide Effort

SDSU Marketing & Communications

South Dakota State University is working to change that with its campus-wide Wokini Initiative. SDPB's Jackie Hendry is here for the first in a series of conversations about that effort.
