Yellow Bird: First Lakota graduates from UND nursing
Tuesday, May 18, 2004
"Rae Ann Red Owl is the first Lakota to graduate from the nursing program at UND. She is also the first woman from the Pine Ridge reservation in South Dakota to complete her master's degree in nursing. It wasn't an easy path for her. When I was told about this extraordinary woman, I was expecting someone strong and bold. What I found was an unassuming, pretty and petite woman who wore her waist-length, coal-black hair tied back with a simple tie." Get the Story:
