«'Tribally Controlled Colleges: Making Good Medicine' is many things. It is a stroll down memory lane for those who were associated with their early years. It is an important compilation of documents which detail the first ten years of the tribally controlled college movement. It is a primer for students and professionals who are currently involved with this movement. And, most importantly, it is a source of ideas for continued study. The tribally controlled college community, through the efforts of Wayne Stein, at last has a document that provides the underpinning for future work.» (Jack Barden, Tribal College)
