During the week of June 18 to June 22, 2012, the Woodrow Wilson School is once again hosting the Santa Fe Indian School Leadership Institute's Summer Policy Academy. The program brings American Indian rising seniors and recent high school graduates to Princeton's Woodrow Wilson School for a week-long program of intensive sessions where they explore the issues facing American Indian communities, including how federal policies affect native tribal communities. Students are nominated to participate in the program each year by their teachers, community leaders, business professionals, and their tribal leaders. This year, 16 American Indian students from pueblos throughout New Mexico are participating in the policy academy.
