D–Q University : ウィキペディア英語版 | D–Q University
D–Q University was a two-year college located on Road 31 in Yolo County, west of State Route 113 in California. Founded in 1971, it was among the first six tribal colleges and universities (TCU) in the United States, and the first established in California. It was not affiliated with a single federally recognized tribe or reservation, as are numerous other tribal colleges. The school ended its full-time class schedule in 2005 due to loss of accreditation. The Board of Trustees has been enlarged and continues to arrange activities to maintain its non-profit status. Students and instructors who remained on campus have continued to use the campus for classes, gatherings, and ceremonies, with annual powwows held through 2013. ==Name== The school was named by founders as Deganawidah-Quetzalcoatl University, after two great Native American leaders of the period before European contact, one from New York and one from Mexico.〔Hindery, Robin. ("California's only tribal college close to collapse after 35 years" ), ''North County Times,'' 13 Aug 2006 (retrieved 30 Aug 2009)〕 According to Iroquois leaders, use of the spelled-out name of the university can be offensive because the first part of the name should be used only in an appropriate spiritual context. Therefore, it is usually referred to as D–Q University to avoid offense. Iroquois tribal members, in certain circumstances, may use the full name.
