Inter-Tribal Student Council
Inter-Tribal Student Council, or ITSC is a group of Native American students and non-native allies who are striving to educate not only the campus, but the community on Native American issues through panels, forums, and weekly meetings. Through campus events like film series presentations, a Round Dance fundraiser, participation in campus EDI discussions with the chancellor, and many more activities, joining the ITSC is a highly active and interactive way to make your voice heard about issues important to both native and non-native students.
Our ITSC members form bonds as students that carry into their futures as alumni, and returning to campus to participate in AIS and ITSC events is a wonderful way to remain involved in the important work and contributions of the council.
For more information contact the faculty advisor, Heather Ann Moody, at moodyha@uwec.edu or contact the council at itsc@uwec.edu
