Abstract	Utilizing data derived from numerous sources (institutions, Alaska Native organizations, Federal and State agencies, conferences, etc.), this descriptive study is divided into 6 chapters which trace the evolution of and the necessity for Alaska Native higher education. Following a detailed introduction, Chapter 2 describes the physical and environmental setting of Alaska and its various ethnic groups (Aleuts; Tlingits, Haidas, and Tsimshians; Eskimos; and Athabascans). Chapter 3 provides historical analysis (1741-1972) of the socio-political changes relative to Native educational development resulting from contact with Euro-American cultures (the Russian period, the American missions, the "government missions", and the evolution and dismantlement of the Native and non-Native 2 school system). Chapter 4 details the influence of Statehood and the land claims movement on the evolution of the Alaska Native's need and/or desire for cultural survival and ethnic self-determination. Documenting the lack of Alaska Native participation in the social affairs of the State, Chapter 5 emphasizes the relationship between higher education and social participation via examination of: public and private institutions; higher education and the Alaska Native peoples; a profile of the Native college student; special institutional programs; the educational needs and the future of Alaska Native higher education.
