Harper, Angie

Boozhoo!  I've been here at Harding since 1997.  I am an Anishinaabe woman, enrolled in the Bois Forte Band of Ojibwe. I grew up on the Leech Lake Indian Reservation. I graduated with a triple major in English, Ethnic Studies, and Secondary Education from Cornell College.  Then I earned my Master's Degree in Education from Saint Mary's University.  I coordinate the American Indian Studies Program at Harding.  I enjoy working with students, getting to know their families, and seeing them in the community.  I like to work closely with Indian Education and other community partners to enrich our students' learning experiences.  

I teach American Indian Voices (a literature class), American Indian History, and American Indian AVID (a college prep class for Native 9th grade students).
