Message from the President
Hau’ Mitakiyapi (Hello my relatives):
On behalf of the Board of Directors, administration, and staff, I
welcome you to the United Tribes Technical College (UTTC) campus!
UTTC is a nonprofit corporation owned and governed by the five
Indian tribes located wholly or in part within the state of North
Dakota. UTTC has provided quality certificate, associate of applied
science, or baccalaureate, programs of study to native and nonnative students since being established 47 years ago.
We are committed to supporting you in completion of the
education program of your choice by providing a challenging
learning environment based in academia and culture. One of our
goals is to enhance your educational experience by exposing you
to native leadership at the UTTC Tribal Leaders Summit held on an
annual basis. Native leaders from throughout the region and the nation attend this event to
share successful models that are addressing critical issues for their communities and nations.
We are also home to the UTTC International Powwow, named one of the top 10 powwows in
Indian Country, by the Indian Country Today Media Network and USA Today in 2014.
The Campus Planner and Campus Services have worked hard to complete the renovation
of the Jack Barden Center (JBC) upper level to a one stop shop for Student Services. The
JBC lower level was renovated to a Student Union complete with computer lab (20 stations),
television room, and the Cozy Creek Café. Sitting Bull Hall (men’s dorm) was also updated with
new windows and doors, bathrooms, and new paint and carpet.
Academic Affairs have refined the programs of study to meet the recent changes to Title IV
(Pell) by decreasing the credit requirements to 24 credits for certificates, 60 credits for associate
of applied sciences, and 120 credits for the baccalaureate programs. UTTC was also recently
approved by the Higher Learning Commission to add a Bachelors in Science in Environmental
Science to the current bachelor degree offerings of Elementary Education, Criminal Justice, and
Business Administration.
These programs of studies are where a huge majority of enrollment is concentrated and
closely aligned with tribal workforce needs from the area. UTTC continues to collaborate with
the North Dakota Association of Tribal Colleges and North Dakota University System to enrich a
seamless transfer between tribal and state colleges. We also continue to work closely with the
University of Mary and Bismarck State College campuses to provide multi-cultural seminars to
enhance and expand our students’ academic experience.
We are here to support you as a student regardless of your academic or training interests
and will do our best to help you complete your chosen program. We welcome you to the UTTC
family! We are committed to providing a unique individual experience and hope you will be
open to sharing your talents and backgrounds with others in our community. The Wellness
and Land Grant programs offer a huge variety of campus based activities and we hope you will
participate not only in your classes, but also explore all that UTTC has to offer. We are excited
and honored to have you here, and we wish you tremendous success in your every endeavor!

History of United
Tribes Technical
College
Enter United Tribes Technical College and
you’re on Indian land. The 230 acre campus
along Bismarck’s University Drive is a place of
historic significance, owned and governed by
the tribes of North Dakota to serve education.
American Indian students are joined by
students of all racial and ethnic backgrounds,
who are welcomed to this culturally diverse
setting. The 100 year-old buildings are a clue
to a past here to discover.
Tribal Homeland
UTTC is the site of the former military
post Fort Lincoln. But long before the first
brick buildings took shape in 1903, this was
open prairie. Wooded ravines and fertile
bottomlands, these were the life-sustaining
homelands of the Mandan, Hidatsa and Arikara.
In 1863—after the Minnesota-Dakota Conflict—
Lakota and Dakota People avoided an almost
certain massacre at this site by outmaneuvering
a vengeful militia from Minnesota. Hunting
grounds, battle sites, villages and sacred
locations abound near the confluence of Apple
Creek and the Missouri.
Military Post
Fort Lincoln’s central parade grounds,
brick buildings and facilities served military
purposes on and off through the first half of
the 20th Century. Periodically troops were
garrisoned, assembled, trained and mobilized.
Headquarters and offices were staffed for
military, government and civic purposes as
Bismarck locals lobbied to maintain the flow of
government dollars into their community.
Internment Camp
Check for catalog
updates at
www.uttc.edu

During World War II, Fort Lincoln was
tapped for another purpose. In 1941 a portion
was cordoned off with 10-foot-high cyclone
fences topped with barbed wire and fortified
by guard towers. The post became an enemy
alien internment camp of the U.S. Justice Dept.
Detained and confined were men primarily
of German and Japanese ancestry—some
of whom were U.S. citizens. By 1946, 4,000
internees passed through “Snow Country
Prison,” connecting it to the acknowledged
national disgrace of unjust treatment of groups
targeted by race and ethnicity.
Post-War Era
After the war Fort Lincoln continued in
government service. It became the U. S.
Army Corps of Engineers headquarters for
planning the construction of Garrison Dam, a
public works project that flooded tribal land,
devastating citizens of the Three Affiliated
Tribes. In 1966 the fort was declared surplus
property, remodeled and used as a Job Corps
training center and by the Peace Corps.
The Beginning of a College
The start of United Tribes is rooted in the
vision and activism of tribal leaders in the 1960s.
Faced with threats to their tribal sovereignty and
the need for training and jobs development, the
tribes of North Dakota incorporated in 1968 and
obtained the fort for education and training.
Classes began in September 1969. Thus, it
became the second tribal college in the nation
and one of the founding institutions of the
American Indian Higher Education Consortium
of tribal colleges nationwide.
Because several tribes were involved, UTTC
holds the distinction of being the first intertribally controlled and operated postsecondary
vocational school in the country. The governing
tribes are located wholly or in part in North
Dakota: Three Affiliated Tribes of the Mandan/
Hidatsa/Arikara Nation, Spirit Lake Tribe,
Sisseton-Wahpeton Oyaté, Standing Rock
Tribe and Turtle Mountain Band of Chippewa.
Setting the Pace
United Tribes was founded as a supportive
campus-community, where students could
maintain the culture and build on their
experience as tribal people as they acquire an
education leading to employment and life-long
opportunities. A hallmark has been the ability
to identify and respond to the changing needs
for job training and education.
In 1982 the college attained full membership
accreditation in the North Central Association
of Colleges and Schools, maintaining its good
standing ever since. The college’s first associate
degrees were offered in 1987. Accreditation
followed for all of the college’s associate level
programs in 1993. Tribal College Land Grant
status was conferred in 1994. UTTC was the
first tribal college in the nation to receive
accreditation to offer associate degrees online.
Now, bachelor’s degree programs round out the
two-dozen or more offerings that make UTTC
one of the leading tribal colleges in the nation.
Transformation
Today, the UTTC campus is a learning
environment with modern educational buildings
and equipment. The historic setting is transformed,
serving students from tribes all across the country.
Thousands have been successful, demonstrating
that educating students at United Tribes is the
highest and best use of a one-time military fort in
the tribal homeland.

Message from the Vice President
of Student Services:
UNITED TRIBES
TECHNICAL COLLEGE
“UTTC is committed to its students. It
provides many services that will help students
achieve success. Your educational goal is to
graduate. Our goal is to help you achieve
your goal. UTTC is here to help you succeed.
We wish you the best in your endeavors.”
Admissions Policy
& Procedures
STUDENT SERVICES
United Tribes Technical College (UTTC)
maintains an “open door” admissions policy
and welcomes all qualified applicants. The
college believes that every person who
has a sincere interest in learning should be
given the opportunity to do so; however, the
general policy does not ensure admittance to
a particular course of study or to all applicants.
Some programs have limited enrollment and
also may have more stringent academic,
medical and legal requirements. Applicants
must have earned a high school diploma or
GED. Admittance priority is given to those
who are members of a federally recognized
tribe and who have demonstrated the ability
to pay for their education. All applicants,
including those returning to UTTC after an
absence or following graduation, may be
subject to a criminal background check.
Procedure
The Admissions Office will consider all
applicants for admission to UTTC. Applications
will be referred to the Admissions Committee
for final review. Individual members of
the committee, representing college
departments, will be responsible for
certifying that applicable standards
have been met. A request for
admissions shall not be granted
in the absence of all required
documents, as detailed in this
procedure. In order to grant
admission to a student
who has applied before
the stated deadlines
on the application,
the
following
procedure
must occur:
1. The Admissions Office will review all
documents and will certify that the
student’s application file is completed.
2. All students with a felony record will be
subject to a background check prior to
consideration for acceptance. Criminal
convictions of various kinds may bar a
student entering into certain programs,
including: criminal justice, teacher
education, practical nursing, and any
other program where a criminal record
can hinder licensure or certification in
that academic discipline. The college
reserves the right to refuse admission
to any applicant with a criminal
background. Any applicant found to
have failed to disclose all or part of a
criminal record may not be admitted,
and is subject to suspension or expulsion
if the failure is discovered after the
applicant is admitted. An applicant who
is a registered sex offender will not be
admitted to any on-campus programs,

will be reviewed to determine the student’s
failure to meet Satisfactory Academic
Progress standards for all terms enrolled,
at UTTC; which may result in loss of federal
aid eligibility. Federal/State Regulations
require students to achieve a minimum level
of Satisfactory Academic Progress. UTTC
adheres to this policy and following is an

• The student must have a term GPA
minimum of a 2.00 and maintain an
overall career GPA minimum of a 2.0.
• Each semester the student must pass
67% of the credits that he/she is enrolled
in for the term and maintain an overall
career completion rate of 67%.

for students to complete their education
program. Therefore, this policy
adheres to the Maximum Time Frame
requirement not to exceed 150% of the
published length of the educational
program. Information may be subject to
change without notice due to changes

For a first time freshman, a Grade Point
Average of 2.00 is required at the end of the
first semester with the college. For a returning
or transfer student, a semester Grade Point
Average of 2.00 is required. A student
enrolled in 12 or more credits in either Fall or
Spring semester is considered full-time.
Part Time Students
Student Class Load
A full time student is defined as being
registered for 12 or more credit hours in a
semester. Any student wishing to enroll in
more than 19 credit hours in a semester must
have written approval of the Vice President of
Academic Affairs. Any student with less than
12 credits is defined as a Part Time Student.
A Student in Good Standing
A student in good standing must have
successfully completed one semester at UTTC
and currently be enrolled. During this time, a
student must carry a minimum of 12 credit
hours, maintain a GPA of 2.0, have good class
attendance and participation, and have no
unpaid fees. Only students in good standing
may represent the college at authorized
academic, vocational, and athletic events.
Course Challenges
Students may elect to challenge a course.
At the beginning of the semester the student
must pay for the course before it is transferred
on the transcript. When a course is challenged,
the student is given an examination or
practical experience which is equal in difficulty
to the final test normally given in the course.
Successful completion of this challenge (90%
or more) exempts the student from taking the
course. The instructor of record is determined
by the Vice President of Academic Affairs.

Semester Description
UTTC operates on a semester basis, a term
averaging fifteen (15) weeks of instruction
and one (1) week for final exams for a total
of sixteen (16) weeks. A Summer Session
is approximately eight (8) weeks in length
and the classes offered during the Summer
Session vary.
UNITED TRIBES
TECHNICAL COLLEGE
Courses with prerequisites require prior
course work, which must be completed
satisfactorily. Students must seek the approval
of the Instructor or Academic Advisor before
registering for specific classes. Courses that
require prerequisites are designated in the
course description.
When any course(s) are considered to
be Pre-Requisites or Co-Requisites to any
other course(s), a minimum grade of ‘C’ must
acquired in both in order for the requirement
to be met. If a grade of ‘D’ or ‘F’ is earned in
one of the courses, then that class will need to
be re-taken in order to fulfill the requirements
of both courses. In order to meet the
requirements of a United Tribes Technical
College degree, all Pre-Requisite and/or CoRequisite Course Requirements must be met
for the purposes of Graduation.
Grading
The college uses letter grades to evaluate
student work in each class. In order to receive
grades and credit, students must meet course
requirements. Instructors are responsible for
determining final grades. A student’s GPA is
determined by dividing the number of honor
points earned each semester by the total
semester hours attempted. The cumulative
GPA is determined by the same formula.
Incomplete and withdrawn semester hours

Grade reports are issued or mailed to
students at the end of each semester.
Honors
UTTC believes it is important to recognize
students who have distinguished themselves
by high scholastic achievement. Students
have the opportunity to be placed on the
President’s List (3.5 – 4.0) and the Vice
President’s List (3.0 – 3.49). These lists are
publicized to give recognition to the students.
Withdrawal from Classes
A Grade of W (Withdrawal) is given to a
student who drops or is dropped from a class
prior to the last day to withdraw as published
in the academic calendar. Withdrawal requires
advisor approval. Students who are dropped
from courses after the last day to withdraw will
receive a failing grade (an “F”) in the course(s)
that are not completed. Students who do not
complete the withdrawal procedure before
the deadline can have any grade (including
‘F’) recorded as their final grade. Exceptions to
the deadline can include Family Emergency,
Medical/Health Conditions, Military Service,
Jury Duty, Lack of Housing, and Lack of
Childcare Funding. All other reasons for
Withdrawal from classes will earn a grade as
described above.
Academic Probation
If a student fails to obtain a minimum GPA
of 2.00 at the end of the term, that student
will be placed on Academic Probation.
The student on Academic Probation is
given another term of enrollment to bring
their Term GPA up to at least the required
minimum of 2.00. The probation status shall
be in effect for one term provided that he/she
meets appropriate academic requirements. A
student may still be on Probation Status even
if their Cumulative GPA is above 2.0 since this
status is determined by term grade results.
Incompletes
If a student fails to obtain a minimum Term
GPA of 2.00 while on probation, that student will
be placed into status of Academic Suspension.
If the student on Academic Probation has
not raised his/her Term GPA to at least the
required minimum of a 2.00 by the end of
the 2nd consecutive term of enrollment, that
student is placed on Academic Suspension.
A notation of Academic Suspension is added
to the student’s permanent record/transcript.
Suspension means that a student is not eligible
to enroll in the College (UTTC) for the next full
semester. When the student returns, he/she
enters the College (UTTC) on a Probationary
status. A student may still be on Suspension
Status even if their Cumulative GPA is above
2.0 since this status is determined by the Term
Grade Results.
A grade of I (Incomplete) will be recorded
when a student is making progress in classes,
but is unable to complete course requirements
for reasons beyond his/her control and after
negotiation between the instructor and
the student about how the course can be
completed. Except for emergencies, such as
exceptional personal illness, a death in the
family, or other unforeseeable circumstances,
a student must contact their instructor within
two weeks prior to an event or events that they
feel would interfere with their ability to attend
class and finish the semester successfully. A
current minimum of a ‘C’ grade is required for
the student to receive an Incomplete in that
course. Copies of the negotiated agreement
will be filed with the Registrar, the advisor,
and the student. Students have two weeks
into the succeeding semester to complete the
necessary work. A “last-minute effort” by the
student to complete the course with a history
of poor attendance or poor performance is
not a viable reason to report an incomplete
grade. It is the student’s responsibility to
request an incomplete grade. It is also the
advisor’s responsibility to make sure the
UNITED TRIBES
TECHNICAL COLLEGE
Academic Suspension
student understands this option. Students
must contact their instructors within two
weeks of other circumstances they feel would
interfere with their ability to attend class and
finish the course successfully. The incomplete
grade must change to a grade by the date
announced by the Registrar or else it converts
to an “F.”
Graduation Requirements
Students who plan to graduate at the
end of their last semester according to their
academic degree plan must complete:
1. graduation application
3. graduation checklist
Students must attend graduation meetings
set by the Graduation Committee. In order to
receive a diploma, candidates must:
1. Earn a minimum GPA of 2.00.
2. Satisfy all cohort degree requirements
as listed in the catalog that are in force
when student last enrolled.
3. Fulfill residency requirements that state

3. If financial obligations exist, and a
transcript is not released, the Registrar
will notify the student in writing and hold
the transcript request for six months.
NOTE: Transcripts will not be issued as a
result of telephone requests.
Transfer of Credits
UTTC certificate and degree programs
offer curricula and skills geared toward
employment. Credits earned at UTTC may,
however, be accepted by other colleges
and universities dependent upon transfer
agreements and/or transcript evaluations. The
student is responsible for initiating transfer by
contacting the admissions / registrar’s office
at the selected college. This process should
be started as early as possible.
Students who have attended colleges
elsewhere must notify UTTC of all previous
enrollments. Students are required to have all
official transcripts from other colleges sent to
the UTTC Registrar’s Office.
Transfer credits of ‘C’ or better may be
accepted if they apply to the student’s degree
plan. The advisor will complete a transcript
evaluation and submit it to the Registrar for
final approval. Credits from other institutions
will not be considered for
transfer if they are
more than five

Change in Program
A Vocational Change Form is necessary
to facilitate an advisee’s desire to change
his/her major. A student needs to obtain
his/her outgoing advisor’s signature so that
the advisor is aware of the student’s change
in original plans. A student needs to obtain
his/her new advisor’s signature for the same
purposes and to initiate the new degree
plan. Primary Advisors have the duty and
responsibility to correctly advise any student
seeking information about another program.
The student is responsible, in collaboration
with the new primary advisor, to secure all
necessary signatures.
Change of Schedule
Students wishing to change courses must
do so within a certain time limit and must
obtain permission from the appropriate
advisors and instructors of classes involved. To
request a change of classes, the student will
consult with his or her advisor. Add/drop forms
are available from the Registrar’s Office. The
deadlines to add classes and to drop classes
are listed in the UTTC academic calendar.
Drop/Add Policy Statement
Students MUST meet with their advisor to
drop and/or add classes in my.uttc and submit
the signed Add/Drop form to the Registrar’s
Office to change their registration. Failure to
attend class does NOT constitute a drop and
does NOT cancel the student’s registration or
his/her obligation to pay all tuition and related
fees for the course. Students are encouraged
to consult with either their advisor or the
course instructor before making the decision
to withdraw. Students receiving financial aid
should consult the Financial Aid Office to
determine whether their eligibility will be
impacted by dropping a class.
A student dropping a course any time prior
to the last day to withdraw date designated
by the Registrar’s Office for the semester will
be awarded a “W.” The “W” will appear on
the student’s grade report and transcript.
If a student withdraws from a course after
the last day to withdraw identified on the
academic calendar, a grade of “F” will be
reported on the student’s transcript for the
course. An “F” will be reported if a student
stops attending class and does not officially
withdraw from the course prior to the
appropriate deadline.
A student may not withdraw from a course
after the semester/session in which the course
was taken has ended. Students cannot add full
semester classes following the last day to add
date designated on the academic calendar
for the term.
Withdrawal from the Institution
A student wishing to withdraw from the
college and all classes may do so by meeting
with their advisor or academic and personal
counselor. The same procedure and time
deadline will be followed as that for dropping
a course.
A student may not withdraw from a class
after the semester or session in which the
class was taken has ended. Administrative
withdrawals may be initiated when a student’s
continued presence on the campus would
constitute the potential for danger to self or
others, or disruption of college community
interests including teaching, administration or
other college recognized activities. If a student
is involuntarily withdrawn due to disciplinary
reasons, grades of “F” will be reported for all
of the students’ courses.
Waiver
A student may request a waiver to a
college academic standard, requirement,
or regulation by filing a waiver request with
the Registrar’s Office and Vice President of
Academic Affairs. The academic advisor will
assist the student with the waiver form.
Grade Appeals
A student may appeal a final grade in any
course. The appeal must be done within ten
business days after the date the final grades
are due for the semester according to the
academic calendar. All students should first
try to resolve any concerns directly with their
instructors before appealing the grade. If the
result of the discussion is not satisfactory, the
student may formally appeal the grade to the
VPAA.
Satisfactory Academic Progress
All UTTC students are required to
demonstrate satisfactory academic progress
during their course of studies in order to be
eligible for consideration for financial aid as
well as continued enrollment. Maintaining
progress in a student’s studies is crucial to
building the academic and professional skills
for success in the future.
UTTC has determined all students must
maintain a cumulative grade point average of
2.0 at all times. The cumulative GPA of new

United Tribes Technical College class, and
current college employees, may participate
in a UTTC sponsored field trip. The college
employee accompanying the field trip will be
responsible for making sure the college’s

Student Academic
Integrity Policy
I. Introduction
While attending United
Tribes Technical College,
students are expected to
conduct themselves
in a manner that
reflects pride in
their
college,
families
and
themselves,
and
that
promotes the pursuit of excellence in their
chosen career field. These expectations
include academic honesty, good citizenship
and financial responsibility.
The integrity of academic programs is
highly valued at United Tribes Technical
College’s (UTTC). This value is very important
to the college’s mission. While acknowledging
the social and collaborative nature of learning,
UTTC leadership expects that grades awarded
to students will represent individual efforts and
achievements of learners. All members of the
UTTC community are strongly encouraged to
be supportive of high standards of academic
integrity, ethical values, and for encouraging
others to do likewise. Conversely, academic
dishonesty, in any form, is not acceptable
and will not be tolerated.
Dishonesty
in the classroom, laboratory, shop work,
tests, practicums, clinicals or internships is
regarded as a serious offense. A student
involved with any act infringing upon and/or
breaching academic integrity will be subject
to disciplinary sanctions up to and including
expulsion from the college.
II. Definitions of Student Academic
Integrity Violations
Cheating: Improper access to or use of
any information or material that is not
specifically approved by the instructor for
use in the academic exercise.
Plagiarism: Plagiarism occurs when a
person represents someone else’s data,
words, ideas, phrases, sentences, as
one’s own. When submitting work that
includes someone else’s words, ideas,
syntax, data or organizational patterns,
the source of that information must
be acknowledged through complete,
accurate, and specific references.
All verbatim statements must
be acknowledged through
quotation marks. To avoid a
charge of plagiarism, a person
should be sure to include
an acknowledgment of
indebtedness, such as
a list of works cited
or bibliography.
The student
needs to be
made aware
that an

electronic means maybe used to discover
plagiarism and cheating.
Fabrication, Falsification, and
Misrepresentation: Refers to the
unauthorized or deliberate falsifying,
altering, or misstating the contents of
documents or other materials related
to academic matters with the intent to
deceive.
Multiple Submissions: Submitting the
same academic work (including oral
presentations) for credit in more than
one class without instructor permission.
Complicity in Academic Dishonesty:
Intentionally helping another student to
commit an act of academic dishonesty.
Distance Education: The definitions
regarding student academic integrity
apply to the delivery and engagement
of distance learning including online
coursework, training programs and
approved off-site programs.
Violation of any academic integrity
policies will result in action as identified in
the UTTC Student Code of Conduct. For
more information about the Student Code
of Conduct, and to read the document in its
entirety, please refer to the UTTC Student
Handbook available on the UTTC website.
Cell Phone Usage
In general, cell phones will be limited to
silent or vibrate mode during class time and
meetings. Instructors reserve the classroom
management privilege to restrict cell phone
usage as specified on course syllabi and
for classroom activities, guest presentation,
and during tests. For parental or family
emergency situations, students will consult
in advance with their instructors about using
personal cell phones for accommodating
such situations.
Student Organizations (Clubs)
A Career and Technical Student
Organization (CTSO) is required for each one
of the degree programs offered at UTTC.
These pre-professional student organizations
provide a unique program of career and
leadership development, motivation, and

Graduation Ceremonies
UTTC has two formal graduation
ceremonies each academic year. Fall graduates
participate in the December commencement
(graduation) and spring graduates participate
in the May commencement. Summer
graduates are allowed to participate in the
May commencement immediately preceding
the summer semester but diplomas will
not be mailed until the summer semester is
complete, degree requirements are met, and
grades are reported.
Library
The United Tribes Technical College Library
is an integral part of the college. Although
the UTTC Library welcomes all users, the
library collections and facilities are primarily
intended for the college community. Every
effort is made to provide access to materials
that continually support the curriculum needs
of the college.
UTTC believes that everyone served by
the UTTC Library have access to accurate
and comprehensive information. To ensure
that access, the Library provides instruction
in information literacy through a variety of
formats. Information literacy aids the patron in
lifelong decision making skills and enhances
lives and culture of the community.
Eligible Borrowers and Borrowing
Privilege
The UTTC Library has a prime responsibility
to serve the students, faculty and staff of the
college.
The secondary mission of the library is to
provide materials and service to the patrons
of the consortium libraries of Central Dakota
Library Network (CDLN). Also the UTTC
Library supports service to the residents of
North Dakota through ND networks systems
and the North Dakota Library Association’s
Network for Knowledge.
A valid UTTC Library card or CDLN member
library card is required to check out materials.
Applications are available at the Library

Online students can contact the librarian by
telephone at (701) 255-3285 x1282 to apply
for a library card.
Acceptance of a library card signifies
agreement to follow library policies. Failure
to adhere to the policies can result in a
library hold at the UTTC Registrar’s office.
UTTC Library card holders are responsible
for any fines or fees incurred on their card
from overdue or lost items from UTTC and /
or CDLN member libraries. Patrons will not
be able to get an official transcript until this
library hold is cleared. Patrons who are not in
good standing at CDLN member libraries will
be denied borrowing privileges at UTTC and
all member libraries. UTTC patrons who are
parents or guardians of Theodore Jamerson
Elementary School students are responsible for
items checked out on their TJES Library card.
Copyright Policy
The purpose of the United Tribes Technical
College (UTTC) Copyright Compliance Policy
is to provide a summary of U.S. copyright law
as it relates to the use of text-based copyrightprotected works in the classroom, online and
library at UTTC, and to provide guidelines
and procedures for obtaining copyright
permission to use these works.
U.S. copyright law contains many gray
areas, and the goal of this policy is to provide
UTTC administrators, faculty, librarians,
students, employees, and others with a
standard approach for addressing complex
copyright issues. This policy covers classroom
issues such as photocopying, online and
distance education, and course packs. It also
covers library uses for print and electronic
reserves, Interlibrary Loan (“ILL”) and
document delivery.
This policy provides practical advice and
procedures on copyright-related matters;
however, it is not a substitute for legal advice,
and proper legal advice should be obtained
when necessary. Please initially contact the
UTTC Library with copyright questions at:
(701) 255-3285 ext. 1282.
Photocopying for Students
The UTTC Library staff may make
reproductions for library users (students,
faculty, etc.), provided the following criteria
are met:
Check for catalog
updates at
www.uttc.edu
34
• The reproduction becomes the property
of the library user.
• The library has no reason to believe
that the reproduction will be used for
purposes other than private study,
scholarship and research.
• The library displays the register’s notice
at the place library users make their
reproduction requests to the library.
Photocopying by Students
Photocopying by students is subject to a
fair use analysis as well. A single photocopy
of a portion of a copyright-protected work,
such as a copy of an article from a scientific
journal made for research, may be made
without permission. Photocopying all the
assignments from a book recommended for
purchase by the instructor, making multiple
copies of articles or book chapters for
distribution to classmates, or copying material
from consumable workbooks, all require
permission.
Institutional Review Board (IRB)
Purpose
The IRB reviews and approves of research
conducted on human subjects. IRB approval
must be obtained before the data collection
begins and specific IRB paperwork must be
submitted to the UTTC IRB before research can
be approved.
There are four main reasons that UTTC
has created an IRB. One, the IRB process
ensures that any and all UTTC-associated
research does not harm human subjects in any
way. This goes in hand with the Native view
of taking care of relatives and community.
Two, adherence to IRB guidelines helps to
ensure the highest quality research at UTTC.
Third, federal laws mandate that institutions
of higher education that are participating in
any type of government-sponsored research
have an IRB in place. Finally, all universities
and nearly all colleges have IRBs. The UTTC
IRB is registered with the U.S. Department of
Health and Human Services Office for Human
Research Protections (OHRP). The registration
number for the United Tribes Technical
College IRB #1 is IRB00005063. For more
information about the UTTC IRB, please visit
the UTTC website.
• The library makes one reproduction of an
article from a periodical or a small part of
any other work.

The Elementary Education AAS program curriculum prepares students to enter a profession
with a demand at an all-time high. Skilled and competent paraprofessionals are needed now
more than ever in the schools, especially with the mandates of the No Child Left Behind Act.
This act requires that all paraprofessionals (teacher’s aids) hold a minimum of a two-year degree
in education in order to meet employer requirements. Upon completion, the graduate can
expect employment as a paraprofessional in a tribal, public or private school setting. Most all
of the courses contain a field experience component. This allows the student to gain firsthand
knowledge of the best practices in education from experienced teachers in actual classrooms.
The degree is designed to transfer to a university bachelor degree program for those students
who wish to continue their education. Transfer degree options include elementary education
teachers, special education teachers, school counselors, physical education teachers, coaching,
as well as a number of other areas.
Students considering the field of education must pass a background check that is completed
upon registration for the program. Any students choosing this program must be free from certain
criminal convictions in order to be eligible for employment upon graduation.
The faculty in the elementary education program have graduate degrees in the field of
education, a wealth of classroom experience, and teacher licensure for the state of North Dakota.
They have a number of credentials as well; bilingual education, online teaching and learning,
reading, and are vocational education certified by the State of North Dakota.
Program Goals
Graduates of the UTTC Elementary Education AAS degree program will:
1. Distinguish characteristics of education theories, effective practices, and foundations.
2. Apply relevant educational technology.
3. Identify classroom and behavioral management strategies.
4. Exhibit dispositions of effective educators.

ELEMENTARY EDUCATION BACHELOR OF SCIENCE
UNITED TRIBES
TECHNICAL COLLEGE
The Elementary Education bachelor of science degree program has been approved by the
North Dakota Education Standards and Practices Board and is designed as a teacher licensure
program. This means students who are accepted into and complete this program of study,
as well as meet the other criteria, are eligible to apply for an Educator’s Professional License
through the State of North Dakota.
The conceptual framework of the UTTC Teacher Education program is based on the philosophy
that a competent, caring teacher is prepared to teach all children. We believe that teaching from
what was traditionally a Native perspective is the best way for all children to learn. A Native
perspective begins with recognizing the child in the context of family, community, and culture.
Learning is a natural part of human growth, development, and socialization in all cultures. In
many cultures, particularly Native American, the learning experiences that constitute education
are based in cultural values of relevance, relatedness, respect, and responsibility - referred to in
this framework as the “4 Rs”.
Relevance is demonstrated through meaningful and authentic learning experiences tied
directly to state and national standards. Candidates learn and experience reflective practice by
participating in field placements in the classroom under mentor and instructor guidance. They
are provided the opportunity to engage in opportunities that are meaningful and relevant to
one’s life and interests.
Relatedness is believing and behaving as if you are a relative to another person or thing. It
is demonstrated and reinforced through collaborations with children and families. Respect is a
very important traditional Native value.
Respect is demonstrated through student contributions and their respect of others’
contributions. The disposition of respect is demonstrated through courtesy, kindness, and
acceptance of individuals and their contributions.
Responsibility is a core value of Native cultures as well as the teaching culture. Candidates
are expected to demonstrate accountability for their actions and decisions as they engage in
their general education and teacher education curriculum.
The 4Rs are integrated throughout the UTTC Teacher Education unit and program(s) and are
placed in the context of a holistic worldview and global interconnectedness. These and other
values will prepare teacher candidates, and in turn the children they will teach, to be productive
members of society and have a good quality of life.
Program Goals
Graduates of the UTTC Elementary Education BS degree program will:
1. Demonstrate content knowledge necessary for effective teaching and learning.
2. Demonstrate skills in teaching methodology that allow for the establishment and
maintenance of an environment conducive to the learning of all students.
3. Use technology as a means of transforming teaching and learning, infusing it across the
curricula.
4. Promote a deep respect for diversity by planning and implementing lessons that are
inclusive of all learners.
5. Encourage reflective practice as a means by which professional educators continually
improve the teaching and learning process.
6. Develop effective communication skills so that viable partnerships between colleagues,
students, and families can be nurtured.
