Red Lake Nation College is proud to recognize Devin Crowe and Stephen Watkins-Melgareo for presenting at the Achieving the Dream (ATD) Data Summit in Baltimore, Maryland!
Their presentation, “Cultural Foundations in Practice: Indigenous Approaches to Strategic Enrollment Management at Tribal Colleges and Universities,” highlighted the importance of incorporating Indigenous values, cultural foundations, and community-centered approaches into strategic enrollment management at Tribal Colleges and Universities (TCUs).
By sharing knowledge and experiences with educators and higher education professionals, our team continues to contribute to important conversations about student recruitment, enrollment, and success while uplifting Indigenous perspectives in higher education.
Congratulations to Devin and Steve on this accomplishment and for representing Red Lake Nation College on a national stage!

Today at our Main Campus in Red Lake, we welcomed 18 students from Voyageurs High School for a presentation and campus tour to learn more about Red Lake Nation College!

With help from President Dan King and our RLNC Ambassadors, students had the opportunity to explore campus, ask questions, and enjoy lunch while hearing firsthand what it’s like to attend RLNC.

The best part? Two high school seniors applied to RLNC during their visit! 🎉

Thank you to Voyageurs High School for visiting and to everyone who helped make this a successful day. We look forward to seeing where these students’ educational journeys take them!
