Mission Statement
Devoted to nurturing student success, NAECC staff engage in direct student advocacy and liaise with various academic departments to promote higher education access and inclusion of Indigenous knowledge. The NAECC proactively cultivates relationships with tribal communities to publicize Purdue University educational opportunities and to assist in forging collaborative research partnerships.
NAECC visitors have access to a conference room for meetings, a student lounge area, and an ITaP-supported computer lab and printer. NAECC services are available to all students, faculty, and staff. The NAECC encourages all Purdue University students to help positively shape and celebrate our diverse campus community.
Creating Relationships, Celebrating Community
