David Risling
David Risling Jr. (April 10, 1921 Morek, CA - March 13, 2005, Davis, CA) was a Native American (Hoopa) educator and rights activist who was often referred to as "The Father of Indian Education".〔(Obituary in the UC Davis news, 3/15/2005 )〕
== Life and achievements ==
After serving in the Navy during World War II, he attended Cal Poly in San Luis Obispo where he earned a degree in vocational agriculture. From 1950 to 1970, he taught agriculture at Modesto Junior College.〔 His increasing involvement in activist causes prompted him to move to UC Davis in 1970, where he helped to develop their Native American studies program. He remained there until his retirement in 1993, when the program became a full-fledged department and is currently one of only three such departments offering doctoral degrees.
He was a co-founder of California Indian Legal Services and the Native American Rights Fund and was involved in securing passage of the federal Indian Education and Indian Tribal Community College acts. Thirty-one Indian community colleges and dozens of K-12 reservation school programs resulted from this legislation.〔(Obituary in the L.A. Times, 3/16/2005 )〕
He was also a major consultant in the creation of the Smithsonian's National Museum of the American Indian and was a three-time appointee to the National Advisory Council on Indian Education
