  MISSION STATEMENT
  We are students, faculty, and staff at Oberlin College, a liberal arts college that currently stewards a historic collection of cultural items from the North American Arctic, primarily Alaska. 

  The primary goal of this project is to help promote and expand knowledge of Indigenous people and their lands by facilitating preservation, access, and interpretation of Oberlin’s Arctic Ethnography Collection for present and future generations. We seek to achieve collaboration and inclusivity through sustaining relationships between students and Alaskan Native communities in order to learn together. 

  If you have questions, comments, or other input, please reach out to us at amy.margaris@oberlin.edu. We value feedback and collaboration as a part of this process.
