This study, which was conducted during the summer of 2005, employed in-depth interviews using open-ended questions to develop an understanding of the history, purposes, and roles, curricula and programs, successes and challenges, and futures of the two Wisconsin tribal colleges: the College of Menominee Nation (CMN) in Keshena and the Lac Courte Oreilles Ojibwa Community College (LCOOCC) near Hayward. Interviews were conducted with a total of eight people, including presidents, administrators, and staff at the two colleges. Field notes were summarized and conclusions were drawn based on the interviews. In each interview, the participants were able to provide feedback on the conclusions being drawn during the interviews.
