Law school won't allow Lakota drum at graduation


The University of North Dakota law school has denied a request to have a Lakota drum ceremony at the school's May 15 graduation.

Indian students protested the decision yesterday and then met with UND president Charles Kupchella and other school officials. But a student said nothing was resolved.

The law school may reconsider the request. Officials are reluctant to change the graduation ceremony.
