News from PRINCETON UNIVERSITY Office of Communications, Stanhope Hall Princeton, New Jersey 08544 Tel 609/258-3601; Fax 609/258-1301 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Date: December 12, 1997 Native American Becomes Princeton Trustee PRINCETON, N.J. In his first days as a student at Princeton University, Regis Pecos felt like a displaced person. A Pueblo Indian whose parents never finished junior high school, whose grandparents spoke no English what was he doing on an Ivy League campus? Two decades later, Pecos is executive director of the New Mexico Office of Indian Affairs and this year he was sworn in as a member of Princeton's board of trustees, one of four new trustees elected by alumni. In this capacity he shares responsibility for a private educational institution with an annual budget of more than $550 million, an endowment close to five billion dollars, and nearly 5,000 employees providing for some 7,000 students. He has taken his place on a roster that includes James Baker, Secretary of State and White House Chief of Staff in the Bush administration; Admiral William Crowe, U.S. Ambassador to Great Britain; Frank Biondi, CEO of Universal Studios; and Malcolm Forbes, head of Forbes Magazine and a 1996 presidential candidate. Pecos is believed to be the first Native American to serve as a trustee not only at Princeton but in all the Ivy League, says Alfred Bush, Firestone Library's curator of Western Americana. Archivists at Harvard and Yale could report no American Indians having ever been appointed to the boards of governance at their universities. Even Dartmouth, which was founded for the education of Indians in 1769 and has been the most successful recruiter of Native American students in the Ivy League since the 1970s, knew of no equivalent appointment there.

Culture : Native American Culture Related Links Pueblo Indian Culture Of the 19 Native American communities located in New Mexico, eight are near Santa Fe. All eight are Pueblo Indian tribes and their communities are referred to as Pueblos. Many of these Pueblos were established centuries ago such as the Taos Pueblo which is thought to have been continuously occupied for close to 1,000 years. Each Pueblo has its own tribal government, traditions, ceremonies and is a sovereign and separate entity. The Pueblos typically welcome visitors and much can be learned about Native American culture by visiting the Pueblos, especially during the specific dances and feast days open to the public. The Santa Fe Indian Market - The world's largest American Indian art market takes place in Santa Fe each August. But, while the Pueblo people are traditionally generous and welcoming, there are modes of conduct that should be followed to avoid misunderstandings or violations of their customs. Here are some suggestions for making sure a visit to a Pueblo is enjoyable for everyone involved: Please observe all rules and regulations of the individual Pueblos Please control children and see that they are respectful.

[Native Americans] [Galleries] [Museums] [Churches] ... [Day Tours] Native Americans Western New Mexico has a history rich with Native American culture. During the 12th century, the Anasazi Indians (or "Ancient Ones") established an advanced civilization near Chaco Canyon. With more than 5,000 inhabitants, this site included 40 underground ceremonial kivas and communal living quarters with more than 600 rooms. Then, the Anasazi suddenly disappeared. The mystery has never been solved, but scientists trace the roots of today's pueblo Indians to these ancient Anasazi people. Pueblos The word "pueblo" refers to an Indian culture that is unique to the Southwest, and not to a particular tribe. New Mexico is home to 19 pueblos, two of which are located near Grants. Though they share many common elements, each pueblo has an independent government, and its own social order and religious practices. The pueblos are further distinguished by their art, jewelry, pottery, drums, carvings and weavings. Indian Tourism Regional trade fairs, all-Indian rodeos, public dances and feast day celebrations provide perfect opportunities to visit pueblos. Some of western New Mexico's most beautiful landscape is found on Indian lands, and opportunities for unique outdoor recreational experiences abound.

Celebrate! Holidays In The U.S.A. Native American Pow-Wows (March - August) "The spirit of the pow-wow is a continuum in Indian life. It isn't just for a few days in March. We live this spirit on a daily basis. It is why we have survived for so long. At one time we were a forgotten people, but I think we are getting stronger. From the powwow we gain strength as Indian people, individually and collectively, to go on into the 21st century." - Linday Yardley, Taos Pueblo Indian "Pow-wow" is the Algonquin Indian word for "ceremony", but the word holds a different meaning according to each native American Indian tribe. Most were religious or war pow-wows, with ceremonial dancing and sacred rituals. Until this century, non-lndians usually did not participate in the pow-wows. Pow-wows mean different things to different people. They are still religious or war celebrations, but themes and goals have changed with the times. Now instead of giving thanks to their gods for a war victory, Indians honor those of their tribes who have served in the American armed forces. Young people return from the bigger cities to learn traditional dances and songs in order to keep their heritage alive. People who are not Native Americans are not only welcomed, they are encouraged to participate in the activities. Embassy of the United States of America Celebrate! Holidays in the U.S.A.
