Historical Note

The Indigenous Cultures Resource Center (ICRC) is a gathering place and resource center that fosters visibility, awareness, and leadership through intercultural learning and support with an emphasis around Indigenous Nations and Indigenous lifeways and experiences.

Formed in 1971 as Poot-Wah-Wat-Mi (Keepers of the Fire), becoming the Native American Student Organization in 1978, the American Indian Student Organization in 1979, and finally adopting the moniker of the Native Nations Student Organization in the early 2000s, the NNSO has sponsored events, awareness weeks, and powwows for the past 50+ years in cooperation with the ICRC (formerly American Indian Student Services).
