Rebecca The educational facilities are separate and yet the state of Minnesota has a program established with the Sioux [not sure which particular tribe] several different tribes of Sioux in the north, they provide educational needs on the University Campuses. I need to find out more about that since my curiosity got the best of me when I met my daughter's friend 2 years ago. My daughter was associated with a blood member who was 1/4th Sioux, [somehow] his expenses are being paid [in short] through the tribe to live on the campus in the Twin Cities of Minnesota while acquiring his degree. Don't forget our missing YORK if you find them all together. :o) Shelia >That's sort of what got me started on genealogy.
