Six Students Complete Choctaw Language Minor at Southeastern
November 30, 2011

In collaboration with the Choctaw Nation of Oklahoma, the Department of English, Humanities and Literature at Southeastern Oklahoma State University (SE) offers a Choctaw Language and Culture minor, and six students were recently the first to complete the program.

The minor became available in the fall of 2011 and is unique to Southeastern, it’s the “only university right now that Choctaw Nation has an agreement with for the minor,” said Southeastern Native American Center for Student Success Director Chris Wesberry in a release.

To be able to note the completion of the minor on their transcripts, the students have to complete 18 hours of classes in the program. Courses offered include Choctaw Language and Culture 1, 2, 3 and 4, as well as Intermediate Conversational Choctaw and Advanced Conversational Choctaw.
