Little Big Horn College School Description

The College Mission and Purpose is directed by the College Charter, passed by the Crow Tribal Council in 1980: to establish, maintain and operate an educational institution at the post-secondary level on the Crow Indian Reservation. Crow Indian voters in the six reservation districts elect the all-Crow Indian Board of Trustees. In addition to the elected board members, a yearly elected member of the LBHC faculty staff and student body comprise the Board of Trustees.

Little Big Horn College is a public two-year community college chartered by the Crow Tribe of Indians. The College is located in the town of Crow Agency, Montana Baaxawuaashe', the capital of the Crow Indian Reservation in south central Montana. Eight Associate of Arts degrees are offered at LBHC. The courses of study offered are directly related to the job opportunities and economic development on the Crow Indian Reservation and surrounding communities. The majority of the students enrolled are members of the Crow Tribe of Indians.

The College campus is located in the town of Crow Agency on the banks of the Little Big Horn River, adjacent to the Crow Indian Agency of the Bureau of Indian Affairs. The Crow Tribal Administration Office is located within two blocks of the campus. The fall of 2003 celebrated the grand opening of both the new Driftwood Lodges Learning Center (faculty/classroom building) and Cultural Learning Lodge. These new college facilities reflect the beauty of Crow geometrical design and are situated in downtown Crow Agency.

From Wikipedia, The Free Encyclopedia

Little Big Horn College is a two-year, tribally owned community college, serving the people of the Crow Indian Reservation. The college is directed by the Board of Trustees elected by districts within the reservation. Current enrollment is 398 students.

Little Big Horn College was first opened in 1980 as the chartered school of the Crow Nation. Dr. Janine Pease advocated the college's beginning and is the college's first president. Under the 1994 Equity in Education legislation of the US Congress, Little Big Horn College became a Land Grant Institution, joining the ranks of the 1864 and 1890 land grant colleges. The college is member of the American Indian Higher Education Consortium. The name Little Big Horn comes from the smaller of the two rivers on the reservation, both receiving the distinction by the Big Horn Mountains, where the rivers originate.
