Tribal Leaders
The Choctaw Nation of Oklahoma's $350,000 scholarship gift makes it the largest tribal
donor for Branding Success: The Campaign for Oklahoma State University. Through the Pickens Legacy Scholarship
match, the total impact will be a $1.05 million boost for students.
The Cherokee Nation and OSU Medicine have announced the establishment of the nation’s
first tribally affiliated medical school in Tahlequah, Oklahoma, set to open in 2020.
“We admire and support OSU Center for Health Sciences’ efforts to populate rural Oklahoma
with doctors from rural Oklahoma. That mission will create healthier families and
communities in northeast Oklahoma and improve the lives of Cherokees for the next
seven generations,” said Bill John Baker, Principal Chief of the Cherokee Nation.
OSU appreciates the support of these tribal nations. Together, we are committed to
helping today's students become tomorrow's tribal leaders.
Center for Sovereign Nations
Sovereignty. Students. Partnerships.
Created as a result of President Hargis’ vision for focused service to sovereign tribal
nations in Oklahoma, the Center for Sovereign Nations was made possible through the
joint investment of OSU and the Chickasaw Nation, with the ongoing invitation to other
tribal nations to join as financial partners.
