Native American Student Alliance (NASA)
Established in 1971, the Native American Student Alliance (NASA)
continues its mission as an active student organization promoting
a Native American presence on campus. NASA hosts an array of
events to promote the recruitment and retention of Native American
and Alaskan Native students; to maintain and promote the truth,
accuracy, and the history of Native people; and to honor and
respect the various Native cultures and traditions.

The American Indian Studies program at San Diego State University
focuses on individual elements that comprise the Native American
cultures. Using literature, art, history and politics as touchstones,
students come to understand the individual as well as tribal character
of the Indian peoples. The academic area also draws comparisons
between American Indian life and the life of other members of American
society.
The only qualification for students enrolling in American Indian
Studies courses is an interest in American Indians and the many
facets of their heritage.
