Advancing Indigenous and Native Student Affairs

In this episode of Student Affairs NOW, we explore the evolving field of Indigenous Student Affairs and Native student success in higher education through the lens of the recent volume Advancing Indigenous and Native Student Affairs: Evolving Knowledges and Practice. Joining us are editors Symphony Oxendine, Cori Bazemore-James, Deborah Taub, and John Garland for a wide-ranging conversation about identity, belonging, leadership, financial aid, professional networks, and culturally grounded student support for Native and Indigenous students. Together, we discuss how colleges and universities can move beyond deficit-based approaches toward practices that genuinely center Indigenous voices, strengths, relationality, and community, while also examining the realities Indigenous students and professionals continue to navigate across higher education today.
