Central Wyoming College

 

Central Wyoming College in Riverton sits in a very unique spot in the state: right next door to the Wind River Indian Reservation. Many of its students are Native American. But now, the school is stepping up to do even more for the tribal community and are well underway in designing a program to educate future Native leaders.

But that’s not all the Institute for Tribal Leadership will do. Wyoming Public Radio's Melodie Edwards talked with CWC president Brad Tindall and the college’s Tribal Education Coordinator, Ivan Posey, about their plans.
