Let’s start off with an introduction. My name is Mika Jade and I am 17 years old. I am from the Standing Rock Sioux Tribe in North Dakota. I am Dakota/Lakota. I live on a reservation with about 2,000 proud Native Americans. I like to be involved socially, culturally, and athletically.
I wanted to be in the Pitzer Pipeline Program because i knew this program was gonna help me finish college, give me a better insight into the university life, and be prepared to go to college.
Today, was a pretty slow day. I met most of the students, it’s a pretty small group, and hopefully I get to know more about our tribes and work together by the end of the program.
Hi Mika! The first day is always a bit slow with the get-to-know-you-activities. Just wait till we get going; you won’t even have energy to type “slow” later on. :p
Mika AKA Ms. Sherman! So happy you’re here and that you are working toward going to college!
