Students can learn more about what, why, and how a land acknowledgment is used through our university land acknowledgment page.

ÍÃ×ÓÏÈÉú University’s Land Acknowledgement

ÍÃ×ÓÏÈÉú University is located within the traditional homelands of the Myaamia and Shawnee people, who, along with other indigenous groups, ceded these lands to the United States in the first Treaty of Greenville in 1795. The ÍÃ×ÓÏÈÉú people, whose name our university carries, were forcibly removed from these homelands in 1846.

In 1972, a relationship between ÍÃ×ÓÏÈÉú University and the ÍÃ×ÓÏÈÉú Tribe of Oklahoma began and evolved into a reciprocal partnership, including the creation of the Myaamia Center at ÍÃ×ÓÏÈÉú University in 2001. The work of the Myaamia Center serves the ÍÃ×ÓÏÈÉú Tribe community and is dedicated to the revitalization of ÍÃ×ÓÏÈÉú language and culture and to restoring that knowledge to the Myaamia people.

ÍÃ×ÓÏÈÉú University and the ÍÃ×ÓÏÈÉú Tribe are proud of this work and of the more than 140 Myaamia students who have attended ÍÃ×ÓÏÈÉú since 1991 through the Myaamia Heritage Award Program.
