Tribal Planning Program at Eastern Washington University

Tribal Planning Program at Eastern Washington University EWU's URP planning department works with tribal governments, regional organizations, and the NWTTAP

Through the unique relations between EWU's urban planning programs and American Indian tribal governments in the region along with the Affiliated Tribes of Northwest Indians (ATNI), and the operation of the Northwest Tribal Technical Assistance Program, EWU has developed a curriculum in American Indian tribal planning at the graduate level to serve tribal government leaders and staff, American Ind

ian students, and anyone interested in understanding tribal planning. The Tribal Planning Executive Certificate is a 23 credit curriculum that can be part of the MURP or other graduate programs at EWU or a stand-alone certificate. The purpose of the Executive Certificate is to provide executive-level education on tribal planning and tribal government administration, programs and services to American Indian tribal leaders, staff, tribal members and all interested students. All students must complete the graduate admission requirements for the MURP Program.

"A U.S. Supreme Court decision in March, 1978 continues to hinder tribal sovereignty on a daily basis. The ruling in Oliphant v. Suquamish Indian Tribe stripped tribes of most criminal prosecutions against non-Indians. Those cases became the responsibility of the federal government. In his dissent, Justice Thurgood Marshall wrote “I am of the view that Indian tribes enjoy, as a necessary aspect of their retained sovereignty, the right to try and punish all persons who commit offenses against tribal law within the reservation.” The Violence Against Women Act was an attempt to remedy the persistent trend of non-Native abusers of Native women slipping through the cracks of the federal justice system. We’ll look at the distressing consequences of Oliphant and efforts through the years to fix it."
