The American Indian Science & Engineering Society (AISES) is a private, nonprofitorganization which nurtures building of community by bridging science and technology withtraditional native values. Through its educational programs, AISES provides opportunities forAmerican Indians and Alaskan Natives to pursue studies in science, engineering, business andother academic arenas. The trained professionals then become technologically informed leaderswithin the Indian community. AISES' ultimate goal is to be a catalyst for the advancement ofAmerican Indians as they seek to become self-reliant and self-determined members of society

"I was honored when askedto weave a Navajo rug of a cam-puter chip. It was a project thatwas challenging because theweaving entailed many differentcolors of natural and vegetaldyed wool, and I had to meticu-lously weave in the shades ofcertain colors in the rug.

I was given a colored photoof the computer chip and usedthat as a guide to weave the rugas close to it. Because of the

complexity in the chip, I learned an important weaving technique fromthe projectweaving using the raised outline which involves alternat-ing two colors, which was used almost continually throughout the rug.

The fascinating part of the project was the use of non-traditionalsteps. In traditional weaving, there is usually symmetry involved whereone side of a rug repeats the other. This particular weaving format did

not follow that so whatever I wove was done only once and there was no part of the rug that was repeated.Additionally I was pleased to learn that the rug was presented_ta.an_organization which I have been involved with in the past as a math

Letter fro the Chairman

Dear AISES Family and Friends,

The 1994 AISES Annual Report is not an autobiography of a year's work. It is the latestentry in a journal commemorating current results of seventeen years of effort and casting newmilestones from which we now embark.

"Weaving Tradition and Technology" brought the Family together in San Jose where weshared in our joy and duty for life. While some traveled great distances to join us, Dr. CraigBarrett, Intel Corporation's Chief Operating Officer, used technological wizardry to bringGovernor Mary Thomas of the Gila River Indian Community to our opening ceremony. Alongwith the technology, Marilou Schultz (Navajo) and Sam English (Turtle Mountain Chippewa) leftus treasures marking our voyage. We shared in honor as Dwight Gourneau (Turtle MountainChippewa) received the 1994 Ely Parker Award as a tribute to his professional and communityservice.

We shared many highlights in 1994, including landmark attendance at the Science Fair inAlbuquerque. Student leaders gathered in Colorado Springs to nurture their abilities at theLeadership Conference. The Council of Elders continued to help us be cohesive as individualsand an organization. We continued to build bridges, linking us together on the informationhighway. The Board of Directors passed the long awaited strategic plan with portions alreadyimplemented. In November we welcomed new leadership to the Board: Sandra Begay-Campbell(Navajo).

As we welcomed new people to AISES, we bid farewell to those whose paths we crossed.They shared our labors, laughs and love, and they adorned our lives in a special way. Sharingthe memories will never leave them strangers. We offer our thanks and wish them success asthey now move ahead on their journey.

The year 1994, measured by time, has passed; however, many years of friendship andaccomplishment endure. The memory, the history, will always be fresh in our hearts. Each of uspursue the horizon holding a promise for the future. Together, we dare to take the adventure, tocourt worthy ambitions, and to give in service so that our endeavors will justify our generationwhen our history is told.

Jaime A. Pinkham (Nez Perce)Chairman, AISES Board of Directors

Letter fro i the xecutive Director

The great Spirit wants people to be different.

He makes a person love a particular animal, tree or herb.

He makes people drawn to certain spots on this earth

where they experience a certain sense of well-being,

saying to themselves, "That's a spot which makes me happy,

where I belong."John Lame Deer

Miniconjou Lakota/Sioux

"Weaving Tradition With Technology," AISES' 1994 Annual Conference theme, representswhat has become a way of life for members, staff, and friends of the AISES family

As you might suspect, weaving the past with the present for the benefit of tomorrow iscomplicated. With recent, unprecedented growth in all areas of AISES, our challenge has beento stay ahead of this demand and to anticipate and fulfill the needs of all our family members.

Thousands of AISES participants who attended our 16th Annual National Conference in SanJose, California, left feeling comfortable, safe, and optimistic about their roles as future scientists,engineers, and technologists and the directions they are taking. Especially important was theirunderstanding of and belief in their ability to walk two cultural roads.

In 1994, nearly $650,000 in scholarships was distributed to hundreds of future leaders inIndian Country.

Additionally, the AISES Leadership Conference ensures that Native students learn the basicsof leadership before they enter the professional ranks.

AISES has built strong foundations for young people through pre-college programs thatfocus on enhancement of science, mathematics, and technology on campuses across America.Linked to these enrichment programs are AISES Teacher Enhancement Programs, designed todemonstrate more effective hands-on, inquiry-based teaching methods, similar to those utilizedby our ancestors, to help empower students.

Despite extremely rapid and costly growth, we have completed another cycle in our greathoop of life. We are proud to report that a part of our future has been accounted for positively,because it has been said that today's young people will be responsible for undoing the damageinflicted upon our Mother Earth for the benefit of all who live here and all who will live here.

Sincerely,

Norbert S. Hill, Jr.AISES Executive Director

MS S is Aucation...Pre College Summer Academic Programs

AISES precollege student programs seek to build a solid foundation to foster and encour-age American Indian students' understanding, development, and use of science and mathemat-ics so that they master and maintain their skills in these areas. The ultimate desired result is anincrease in the number of American Indian students matriculating in college in mathematics,science, and engineering, and persisting in these majors through to graduation so that they canenter careers in these fields. Since the summer programs were launched in 1988, AISES hasreceived nearly 4,000 applications from American Indian students interested in participatingin science and mathematics programs.

Over 300 middle and high school students representing 44 tribes and 23 states partici-pated in the 1994 AISES Summer Academic Programs, held at various university sites.

1994 program sites were:St. Norbert College, De Pere, WisconsinNew Mexico State University, Las Cruces, New MexicoUniversity of Iowa, Iowa City, IowaMontana State University, Bozeman, MontanaClarkson University, Potsdam, New YorkStanford University, Stanford, CaliforniaOklahoma State University, Stillwater, OklahomaUniversity of Colorado, Boulder, Colorado

University sites provide funding support for their hosted program. 1994 AISES Pre CollegePrograms development and implementation were funded by:

Dr. Rosa Minoka Hill FundA precollege American Indian education program was established six years ago by the

family of Dr. Rosa Minoka Hill to recruit and nurture American Indian students to successfullycomplete a college preparatory school education. Dr. Hill, a Mohawk, who became a physicianin 1899, spent her early medical career in service to indigent women and children in Philadel-phia, Pennsylvania. She married an Oneida, Charles Hill, and moved to Oneida, Wisconsin.Dr. Hill raised six children after Charles died while a young man.

Education for American Indian students has been identified as a critical piece for the futureof Indian tribes. The Minoka Hill Fund assists high school aged students (grades 9-12) inobtaining scholarships to prestigious college prep schools around the country. Thirty-fivestudents currently study at 16 prep schools in Connecticut, Massachusetts, Pennsylvania, NewHampshire, New Jersey, Colorado, Arizona, California and Texas. Nine students graduatedfrom prep schools in 1994, all of whom are in colleges: Stanford, Dartmouth, George Wash-ington, Holy CrossWellesleyrUniversibes of Arizona, Southern California, Iowa and New

AISES College Chapter Enhancement Project (ACCEPT)The objective of the three-year ACCEPT grant is to develop information and tools to

enable chapters to function more effectively. Funding from the Sloan Foundation allowedAISES to undertake a variety of activities to strengthen the organization and operation ofcollege chapters. Grants of $2,000 were made to 24 chapters to enable them to undertakecreative chapter building activities.

The ACCEPT project also provided for a consultant to study AISES chapters on ten collegecampuses to analyze their strengths and weaknesses.

Another ACCEPT project activity was a workshop held for 30 chapter advisors inconnection with the National Conference. The focus of the workshop was on the role of thechapter advisor in assisting in student growth and chapter strengthening.

Undergraduate and Graduate Scholarships1994 was a successful year for AISES scholarship programs. Our combined scholarship

dollars surpassed expectations of $600,000. Over 375 American Indian\Alaskan Nativeundergraduate and graduate students received scholarships in amounts ranging from $1,000to $4,000 each.

AISES administers and maintains scholarship programs for the Santa Fe Pacific Founda-tion, Environmental Protection Agency, American Indian Development Foundation, andGeneral Electric's Ph.D. Graduate Fellowships Program, and AISES' A.T. Anderson MemorialScholarship Program.

improved mathematics and science education. Teachers are offered a three-week summerworkshop at the University of Northern Michigan in Marquette that examines the bestmathematics and science programs available and prepares the teachers to implement hands-on, relevant mathematics and science lessons. The integration of culture, classroom subjects,and community resources is used to help teachers and community participants begin to makesystematic changes in their local educational systems. Follow-up involves site visits toclassrooms, participation by staff in community meetings, mid-year meetings, and a monthlynewsletter.

AISES Environmental InstituteDuring the Summer of 1994, our Environmental Institute, just 30 miles SW of Denver, in

Grant, Colorado hosted 5 groups of Native American students and teachers and our Augustmeeting of the Board of Directors. The highlight session was a 3-week meeting of thirty-fiveteachers from Country-wide Indian high schools, during which the teachers shared motiva-tional techniques and developed a draft curriculum for environmental education.

In 1995, we will further improve and extend our modern housing, kitchen and educa-tional facilities by adding software and Internet connections to our existing IBM-donatedcomputer network and two large conference tipis. We will have a full-time, Native Americancounselor on-site for improved facility supervision and assistance in cultural education.

Five groups have already reserved time for the coming Summer; especially satisfying is thereturn of the Native American Fish & Wildlife students, who were our first, ever, tenants in1993. The Institute is available at a very low cost to any non-profit organization.

ASS is Building Community..."Weaving Tradition & Technology),Thoughts on AISES' 16th Annual National Conference

The 16th Annual National Conference was held November 10-13, 1994, at the San JoseConvention Center in San Jose, California. AISES would like to extend a warm thank you toall the sponsors and volunteers of the 1994 National Conference who helped make theconference a tremendous success. Special appreciation goes to Intel Corporation, IBM,Hewlett-Packard and the U.S. Department of Energy-Oakland who provided significantfinancial support as well as in-kind services on the 1994 Local Planning Committee.

Traditionally, the AISES Annual National Conference is an event that gathers a diversegroup together with a common focus. Tribal leaders, corporate and government representa-tives, over 1,000 college students and 500 high school students, members and friends ofAISES came together in support of American Indian education and leadership. Close to 2,500participants joined together to focus on the future's technological progress and its effects onAmerican Indians. Among the numerous highlights were the ProShareTM video conferencing ofthe opening ceremony to the Gila River Reservation, the Honors Banquet where close to$600,000 in scholarships were awarded, the High School Day, Don Coyhis' medicine wheelsession, storytelling and advice from the Council of Elders, a record number of recruiters atthe Career Fair and the Traditional Dinner, where Intel Corporation presented AISES with abeautiful weaving of the Pentium computer chip. This gift embodied the NationalConference's theme of "Weaving Tradition & Technology".

The Career Fair is an invaluable opportunity for companies, government agencies,organizations and schools interested in recruiting the nation's top American Indian collegestudents and professionals togather. Exhibitors have access to over 2,000 Indian students andprofessionals. The two day event provides students with job opportunities, internships, co-operatives, summer jobs and career positions.

Throughout the conference, seminars targeting college students and professionals wereoffered to address issues of academic, personal and career growth. Topics included interview-

Finally, the traditional pow wow took place on Saturday evening. P.O.W. Saboba IndianReservation and Eagle Feather Singers served as host drums. As usual, the event was acompelling crowd pleaser.

The conference was a tremendous success. Please join AISES next year in Detroit,Michigan, November 9-12 as we focus on Spirit, Knowledge, Vision: Many Roads, OneDirection.

High School Day at 16th Annual National ConferenceHigh School students continue to play a big role in the AISES National Conference. Over

500 American Indian high school students and their chaperones, from throughout the country,traveled to San Jose, California, to participate in the 1994 AISES High School Day, which washeld in conjunction with the 16th Annual Conference. Students attended an Opening Sessionwhere keynote speaker Benny Shendo, Jemez Pueblo, Director of the Stanford UniversityNative American Program, challenged the youths to strive to be the best at whatever careerpath they choose. The large group then broke into two divisions and attended financial aidand college preparatory sessions with Lance Lujan, Kiowa/Taos, Indian Resource DevelopmentProgram; Mary Lukin, Blackfeet, Montana State University; and Dr. Whitney Laughlin of theHawaii Preparatory Academy. Students then had the opportunity to participate in hands-onsessions, focusing on environmental protection, marine biology, basketry, holograms, comput-ers, career choices, alcoholism, and other topics. Many of the presenters were from variouscorporations and federal agencies and are contributing much to their own communitiesthrough Native American Outreach programs. Upon completion of the High School Dayactivities, students and their chaperones were invited to join the mainstream AISES NationalConference attendees for a luncheon. Following the luncheon, students were able to meet andreceive information from over 190 exhibitors, including colleges and universities, at the AISESCareer Fair and Technology Exposition.

The American Indian Knowledge SeriesFollowing successful conferences on American Indian Knowledge of the Stars and Animals,

a Plant Conference was held in Albuquerque, New Mexico, in November 1994. This Confer-ence, co-hosted by Joe Sando and the Indian Pueblo Cultural Center, brought togetherapproximately 100 Indian students, teachers, Indian and non-Indian professionals. Thirteenspeakers from various tribes filled the two days with their knowledge of and reverence towardthe plant world. The pleasure of the audience was obvious, as was the amount of collaborationamong the various speakers. This Conference was the last in a series supported by a grantfrom the WK. Kellogg Foundation and others. Two conferences are scheduled for 1995:Traditional Agriculture,-with the AmentarAndian Program at Cornell University in earlyAugust, and Originsnd Migrations in late October.We are also proposing a major expansion of the American-Indian_KnowNge_Series and,requesting funding for a three-year project. This has become a major program withinAISES mission of building community by bridging science and technology with traditionalnative values.

AISES is Resources...

American Indian BooksWe completed our first full year of offering AISES Books in 1994. The second edition of

our full-color catalog was distributed in November for the National Conference and theChristmas season. New sections were added on Videos and For Younger Readers; the Fiction,Education, and Reference sections were all expanded. We now have over 150 carefully selectedAmerican Indian titles with a growing number, and preference for, Indian authors andillustrators. We are pleased with the comments and orders that we have received; we areespecially happy with the number of substantial orders from tribes, libraries, and schools.

AISES Books was launched in late 1993 with a start-up grant from US West; it had abusiness plan that called for it to become profitable endeavor and to contribute to the AISESgeneral fund. In 1994, the book operation exceeded our profit-making expectations andprovided a valuable service to AISES members and to American Indian authors. We wouldwelcome any suggestions for improving and expanding these services.

AISES Calendar & Quote BookThe year 1994 also saw AISES enter another area of service and fund raising, with two

joint publishing efforts with Fulcrum Publishingthe 1995 AISES Calendar and the compan-ion book of quotations, Words of Power: Voices from Indian America. Words of Powercontains over 250 quotations from 100 current and historic American Indian leaders.

AISES is indebted to its long-time friend, Sam English, for the use of his exquisite prints inour calendars. He has agreed for AISES to use his art again in the 1996 calendar that will goon sale in early September; it is even more beautiful than the 1995 edition.

The response by AISES friends and the public at large has been exceptional. The calendarsold out, was reprinted, and sold out againsomething very remarkable in the calendarbusiness. Words of Power sold out its original printing before its first shipment and wentimmediately into a second printing.

The First Annual College Guide For American IndiansA proud accomplishment for AISES and Winds of Change in 1994 was the publication of

the first Annual College Guide for American Indians. Thanks to a start-up grant from US West,we were able to produce an excellent publication, fill an enormous need in the Indiancommunity, and assist AISES with its major objective of increasing the number of AmericanIndian college graduates.

Many bright Indian students were not applying to college, so the Guide starts with shortinterviews of Indian college students who share their thoughts on college and their suggestionsto high school students in order to encourage new applicants. Also, many students pick aninappropriate school and then drop out, so the Guide provides write-ups on colleges that do aparticularly good job of retaining and graduating Indian students. The Guide describes theIndian community activities and support programs at 200 four-year colleges. This, plus adviceon how to apply for admission and financial aid and suggestions for guidance counselors,make the Guide an invaluable resource.

We are particularly pleased with the quantity of orders we have received from schools,districts, tribes and Indian education programs, as we hope to place a copy in the hands ofevery family with high school students and their college counselors. Sales of the Guide andrevenue from advertising will allow us to publish on an annual basis. The 1995-1996 Guide isscheduled for publication in September 1995.

the support of Bob French-and-his-dedicated crew of volunteers, AISES Merchandise enjoyedanother year -of growth-and-profits-;a11,4whia'go.t.o the AISES general fund. To make

AIS7S is Communication...

Winds of ChangeWinds of Change continues to refine its presentation and to grow. Entering its 9th year, the

magazine has focused more than ever on the regular themes of careers, education, leadership,environment and health. In September, we published our first special edition, the AnnualCollege Guide for American Indians. And there has been a significant increase in advertising onthe part of Indian-owned businesses throughout the year.

The content of Winds in 1994 included topics and regular features such as the Nativeenvironment, Indian education, sustainable science, tradition and tourism, book highlightsand Indian media portrayal. Yet, the common theme that continues to manifest inall areas is sustainabilitya concept that has traditionally been tightlywoven with Indian living. We began a new series on Indiantraditional knowledge including articles by major partici-pants at the 1994 AISES traditional knowledge confer-ences. By helping to bring together people for thesespecial AISES conferences, Winds of Change hopesto play a role in the ongoing presentation oftraditional indigenous knowledge. 1994 sawarticle contributions from Vine Deloria, Jr.,Dr. Gregory Cajete, Dennis Martinez andDoug George in this new subject area,among many other very qualified andhighly respected writers.

Education NewsletterThe AISES Education Newsletter is

AISLiS is Growing...

Membership1994 was another growth year for AISES Membership. AISES now has over 3,000 active

members, representing a growth of over 15 percent from 1993. All areas grew substantially;college students continue to make up over one half of the AISES membership. The K 12student ranks also increased in 1994; we now have over 500 PreCollege Student Members andalmost 150 Affiliate Member schools. These increasing numbers mean that we can reach morestudents, both Precollege and college, with AISES information and programs.

Professional and Lifetime Sequoyah Memberships also increased to nearly 900, provingthat a growing number of American Indian college graduates and AISES friends are continuingto stay involved and are supporting the vital work of AISES.

New College Chapters Added in 1994Thirteen new chapters were approved by the AISES Board of Directors in 1994, bringing

the total to 116 college chapters. The chapters offer AISES members the chance to develop agroup of close friends, practice leadership skills, attend regional and national leadershipconferences, join tutoring groups, help with outreach programs, help bring cultural programsto campus, and improve the social and academic climate on campus for American Indians.

The new chapters are:Albuquerque Technical Vocational InstituteBoise State UniversityCentral Washington UniversityCrown Point Institute of TechnologyD/Q UniversityMontana College of Mineral Science & TechnologyNew Mexico Highlands UniversityNorth Carolina State UniversityNorthwest Indian College-TacomaOnondaga Community CollegeSalish Kootenai CollegeUnited States Air Force AcademyUniversity of Wisconsin-Stevens Point

Professional ChaptersAISES by-laws were modified in 1994 regarding formation and operation of professional

chapters. Model by-laws for professional chapters also were approved by the AISES Board.Professional chapters in Alaska, California, Colorado, Columbia River area, Montana, New

Mexico, Northern Arizona and the Pacific Northwest engaged in a wide variety of activities tosupport AISES objectives. Chapters supported existing high school and college chapters,assisted in organizing new chapters, provided scholarships, coordinated summer internships,assisted with the National Conference and science fairs, and provided social events andnetworking opportunities for members.

It is expected that professional chapters will become an increasingly powerful force inachieving the goals of AISES.

AIS can be accessed through <[email protected]> and AISESnet through <gopherbioc02.uthscsa.edu>. Additional information about these services may be obtained by

contacting the AISES office at <[email protected]>.

Career Placement ServicesIn 1994, AISES continued its programs for facilitating the job hunting process for students

and graduates and added one new initiative. The job placement files on AISESnet are updatedat least monthly and have continuously grown to contain more position notices and contact

information. The Career Fair at the National Conference is increasingly important to studentsas well as to corporations and organizations that have positions available. AISES continued its

practice of making the student resume book available to exhibitors at the Conference.Workshops at the Conference dealt with sessions on resume writing interviewing for thestudents, and for representatives of the corporations and government agencies, effectivepractices for recruiting diverse candidates.

New in 1994 is a resume database that is available on disk so that organizations withpositions available can search the data to find potential candidates who meet the employers'selected search criteria. The database, which contains more than 300 resumes, was provided toConference exhibitors and to others who have been interested in using it to find eligiblecandidates. Additional plans for 1995 include encouraging more AISES students and profes-sional members to submit their resumes for the database, developing internship programswith government agencies and other organizations to provide meaningful work experiences for

students, and continuing to enhance the National Conference Career Fair as a marketplace of

job opportunities.
