Indigenous voices have in the past gone unrecognized and under-represented in our academic community and nation. The Mechoopda Indian Tribe of Chico Rancheria has requested that written acknowledgements of gratitude represent their continued presence in our community and relationships with Chico State accurately and in words approved by the tribal council.
We acknowledge and are mindful that Chico State stands on lands that were originally occupied by the first people of this area, the Mechoopda, and we recognize their distinctive spiritual relationship with this land, the flora, the fauna, and the waters that run through campus.
We are humbled that our campus resides upon sacred lands that since time immemorial have sustained the Mechoopda people and continue to do so today. Office of Tribal Relations, Chico State
