Muscogee Junior says, “The Center has become one of my second homes here on campus and in Stillwater in general. It has allowed me to meet some of the best people I know and connect closely with my culture and heritage. Working here also gives me an opportunity to help teach others about Native issues and culture as well.”

As the number of Chickasaws completing college and other professional training programs continues to rise, we are excited to welcome graduates to join the Chickasaw Alumni Association.

The Chickasaw Alumni Association provides opportunities, including cultural resources and mentoring, for Chickasaw citizens who have completed an associate, bachelor’s, master’s or doctorate degree, or a professional certification or license program.

In addition to offering the many benefits of an extended network of support for graduates and aspiring young professionals, the Chickasaw Alumni Association is a great way to foster cultural connections and develop relationships that strengthen our tribe as a whole.
