Tradition meets New Knowledge
Welcome to the University of Arizona (UA) Native American Student Affairs (NASA)! Please take some time to get to know about the efforts at the UA for our American Indian and Alaska Native students. Whether you're a current student or would like to become a proud Wildcat, the UA NASA office is here to serve you and help you meet your academic goals. Beyond this, we'll ensure that your UA campus is a safe place for you to explore different facets of being a student and an American Indian leader.
You should know that learning occurs outside the classroom, and it's our mission in NASA to help you ask questions, think critically and establish a foundation of knowledge, principle and wellbeing to make you the best student you can be. We are continuously developing leadership programs to help you harness the knowledge you gain in and out of the classroom to properly implement into your lives and to impact our tribal communities.
As you visit campus, be sure to speak a word of thanks to the Tohono O'odham and Pascua Yaqui peoples upon whose land we are guests here in Tucson. As guests and scholars we will build this community and continue the development of leaders for 'Indian Country'.
