I've been lucky that way - as a 'Mohawk', I have never been subject to the BIA... and I am thankful every day about that.

And what is even worse, is that the schools on many reservations are run directly by the feds. Wanna talk about bad education.... makes public schools look like the cream of the crop...

What was worse were the boarding schools that many had to go to. I'm really happy to see Sherman Indian High School in Riverside, Calif. actually getting up to normal educational standards, and I doubt that ever would have happened without the huge contributions from former students in California's gaming tribes.
