We-tu

3/10/2020

An-pe-tu Was-te (Good Day in Lakota),
We-tu is the season of springtime in our Lakota way of life.  Our months and seasons are described by the Wi (Moon) and correlate with seasons and events that go on in that specific month and time period.
Spring is an exciting time for our students and staff here at Sinte Gleska University as we plan for our 50th year’s celebration.  We can imagine our lives beyond the cold weather, snow and icy roads. We-tu, (spring) in our way of life is a time to renew and restore our pathway to achieve our academic goals.  
Your kind support and donation to Sinte Gleska University plays a large role in providing student scholarships and helping us continue our important educational work for student development and to preserve and interpret our evolving Lakota history, language and culture.
Your generous support is greatly appreciated and is tax-deductible in accordance with IRS regulations.
Wo-pi-la tan-ka, (A big thank you)

     What Our Donors Are Saying

 “We had a wonderful time there visiting the facilities, visiting the students, visiting the teachers. And it’s very exciting because this year they were able to, through our fundraising, shore up the idea of bilingual education, so they have these little ones learning Lakota and English simultaneously. This seems to be a very central piece to the spirit of the tribe, that the numbers of fluent Lakota speakers have dwindled, which is not a good feeling for the spirit and psyche of the Lakota. So bringing in this very youngest generation and being able to educate them in a bilingual environment is a very hopeful and very progressive thing to do.”
