Kumeyaay Indians. She graduated from Granite Hills High
School and intends to major in History

The evening ended with remarks from
SCTCA Executive Director Denis Turner.
He congratulated the graduates on their
academic accomplishments and urged
them to continue their education.

SDSU Native American Graduates
Honored at Sycuan Resort
By Karin Giron, Education Coordinator, SCTCA TANF Escondido
On May 2, San Diego State University (SDSU) hosted its Annual Graduates Honoring
Ceremony at the Sycuan Golf Resort.
The ceremony recognized Native American Students; American Indian Studies Majors
& Minors; Hospitality & Tourism Management Majors with an emphasis in Tribal Gaming
and Native American Scholars. Seventeen graduates from tribes throughout the nation were
recognized for their achievements.
Prior to being recognized, each graduate was introduced by a SDSU staff or professor. The
introductions included remarks about the many programs the graduates participated in and
the impact they made while attending SDSU.
Each of the graduates was then given a Pendleton Stole, which was hand-crafted by a local
Native American artisan, and a certificate of completion. Many tears flowed from the graduates and attendees, as the graduates shared their struggles and achievements. Graduates

(SCTCA) 2015 High School
Graduation Celebration in early
May at the Barona Resort and
Casino.
The celebration honored 112
Native American students who
graduated this year from high
schools throughout San Diego
County. The graduates represented 15 tribes, including 18
from San Pasqual and 17 from
Barona.
The four-hour event included
hundreds of family members,
relatives, friends and tribal
leaders. Each of the graduates were presented Eagle feathers by
tribal leaders in recognition of their
accomplishment.
“Tonight is a night of celebration,”
Barona Tribal Chairman Clifford M.
LaChappa wrote in the graduation celebration program. “Earning a high school
diploma is extremely important and
each of you should be very proud of your

thanked their family, friends, and SDSU for their
ongoing support. Kellen Hernandez, of the San
Luis Rey Band of Luiseno Indians, Masters of
Business Administration, also thanked the graduates of the Sycuan Institute of Tribal Gaming. He
explained that the economic impact of their work
will not only assist the gaming enterprises and
the local community, but it would greatly impact
tribes, non-gaming tribes, and Native American
communities.
According to the National Center for Education
Statistics, the number of American Indian/Alaska
Native students enrolled in colleges and universities more than doubled in the past 30 years.
Yet American Indian/Alaska Natives still represent a small percentage of student populations
in colleges and universities. More importantly
they were less likely to earn a bachelor’s degree or
higher than their non-Native peers. Given these
statistics, the ceremony at Sycuan highlighted the
progress Native American students are achieving
in higher education.

American Indian Powwow
Comes to Balboa Park
By Karin Giron, Education Coordinator, SCTCA TANF Escondido
DISPATCHES
In Memoriam
Forever Remembering
Chairman
Leroy Elliott
Manzanita Chairman
1943–2015
On Mother’s Day weekend, dancers and singers representing
tribes from across North America gathered at Balboa Park for the
Annual San Diego American Indian Powwow.
The two-day event was a traditional powwow that emphasized
the sharing of traditional song and dance. Dancers were given the
opportunity to showcase their specific style. The head staff also
hosted dance specials, including the Two Step or Couples Dance; a
Northern Traditional dance competition; and the crowd-favorite
Potato Dance, in which partners dance while balancing a potato
between their foreheads.
The powwow committee also took the time to honor Tishmall
Turner for her ongoing dedication to Indian education. Turner is
the Tribal Liaison at California State University San Marcos. The
committee also honored the late Chairman Leroy Elliott.
The annual powwow was
a collaboration effort among
many community organizations
including The Soaring Eagles,
The San Diego American Indian
Health Center and the University
of San Diego. The event was in
conjunction with the year-long
Balboa Park 2015 Centennial
Celebration.

“This is who we are. Be proud.”
Leroy Elliott inspired as a spiritual leader, a quiet, gentle
man of few words, but much wisdom. As tribal chairman of
Manzanita, he passionately carried out his responsibilities,
contributing to the advancement of Indian people by helping
us reconnect to our roots. He said, “This is who we are.
Be proud.” Elliott was responsible for the rediscovery and
practice of many Kumeyaay traditions from the funeral songs,
to language, and Peon, a game that had not been played
at Manzanita since 1932. He recruited and taught others
the lost funerary songs, beginning with just a few volunteers.
Today, there are now 50-60 bird singers of all ages.
Leroy Elliott was a member of the California Native
American Heritage Commission, served as Chairman of
the Southern Indian Health Council, and member of the
Southern California Tribal Chairmen’s Associations’ Executive
Committee. In 2009, Elliott was recognized as an “Honored
Elder” at the California Indian Education Association Annual
Conference.
Leroy Elliott never failed to be there when someone needed
him to lead traditional ceremonies at funerals and wakes,
some lasting 24 hours. He was a visionary, with a caring
attitude, and grateful to share his gifts with the people.
He was fair, uncritical, and thoughtful regardless of the
challenges he, or his tribe faced. Chairman, brother, father,
grandfather, friend and Kuuchutt, Leroy Joseph Elliott, crossed
over on March 18, 2015. A respected Kumeyaay Elder, he
was dearly loved and will be greatly missed by all whose
lives he touched and changed.

“I am greatly looking forward to seeing how my education will affect my life
and the lives of others.”
As a high school student in my senior year I am looking forward to furthering my education to a higher level. College has always
been an incredible adventure that I am willing and eager to finally get to. I am overjoyed to say that I was accepted at (UC
Davis). UC Davis has accepted me in the Viticulture and Enology program, where I hope to earn a Bachelors of Science. Being
Native American and one of the three only members in my family to go to college is a great honor and a true testament to what
we as people and a race can do. I hope that my experiences at UC Davis will allow me to bring what I learn about agriculture to
the tribe and its people.

“I have confidence that I will thrive and succeed.”
I am very blessed to say that I will be attending Creighton University in the fall for a degree in Nursing. I am very excited for the
opportunity to further my education at such a prestigious university. At Creighton I will learn about the intricacies of the human
body, diseases, human anatomy and physiology. Most importantly I will learn how to care for people at the holistic level. I believe this is a very important skill that can be used in the Native American Community. In my experience, the Native community
not only wants to be nurtured physically but also spiritually and emotionally. I believe that I will be able to better understand
and serve the tribal health care system. It has been a long and arduous road that has led me to this point. I lived with my family
on the Santa Ysabel reservation. Times were difficult when I was young. We had no electricity, plumbing or heating. During this
time, my parents made it a priority that I receive an excellent education. This was never easy and the living conditions on the
reservation were harsh. But I would do it all over again because of the education I received laid the foundation for my future
success. I have every intention of returning to the reservation to care and educate Native Americans. Education is such a key
component of living a successful life and the more Native Americans who become educated, the stronger our tribal community
will be!

“I plan to rise above the numbers, I intend to make history.”
For years I have worked tirelessly at my primary schools to be the best I can be. Studying and sleepless night have been part of
my daily ritual for quite some time now. All of this work has just been preparing me for the time and place in my life where
I can truly succeed, a four-year University. I will be attending San Diego State University and plan on studying history with an
emphasis on Anthropology. For as long as I can remember I have been fascinated with the past and everything human beings
have left us. I have a dream that one day, I will have the opportunity to spread my passion for history to the people of my tribe.
I want to educate, inform and inspire my community. I hope to reach out to the elders of my tribe and other tribes to spark
memories of the past and bring them to the forefront of new generations. I want to bring history to life in the eyes of native
children. My community has given me so much, especially the motivation to pursue my own dreams!
