Greetings cyber-space family:
Today, I was informed that I was nominated by Rhode Island College for inclusion in the 2005 edition of Who’s Who Among Students in American Colleges. This nomination was based on above average(3.965) academic standing, while pursuing a degree in Anthropology!
PS. The Indians are coming!

Congradulations!!!!!
I live in Massachusetts just over the bridge from Rhode Island. If you are in the area let me know. I would love to meet you.

January 4, 2005 at 6:18 pm #12787I travel all over the state including MA, CT, VA giving lectures on New England Indian history and culture. I go under the name Strong Woman.
January 4, 2005 at 6:18 pm #12789Julie,
I lost my husband in 2001 and because of health issues I had to move in with my daughter. We moved to this house about a year ago. It is a little village about 7 miles north of Fall River by the name of Assonet. The village got it’s name from the local Indians. It is a quaint little village, very friendly but don’t blink when passing by or you just might miss it.
I was born in the mountains of West Virginia, a real hillbilly. It is nice to be able to communicate with somebody close with some of the same interest.
BTW You should be real proud of those marks.

January 4, 2005 at 6:18 pm #12794Julie , this is a real maker in time for you, hang in there and all the best, CONGRADULATIONS!!
Three Cheers for an “Art-full Heart”!
January 4, 2005 at 6:18 pm #12795Your words are so comforting.
Thank you. It hasn’t been easy being a single mother of three.
I want to go on and be not only a role model for my children, but for the NA community as well.
LOL

I know where Assonet is…go by there often to get to the Dighton Powwow and gatherings.
We should hook-up.
LOL
January 4, 2005 at 6:18 pm #12913Congrats Julia – I am so very, very proud of you. I too go to school and, I know how difficult it can be!
I am married with two kids and, studying is a pick-a-quiet-time-of-the-day-when-you-can-get-it!! 😀
I am graduating in May this year with a AAS degree in Human Services. I have been nominated to the Who Who’s Among American Two-Year Colleges. I am trying to graduate with highest honors (Summa cum laude 3.8) however, I currently have a 3.657 close but not close enough. I just finished this Fall semester with a 4.0 so, I will be on the President’s List.
I am in the Human Services Club, Alpha Delta Omega (National Honors Society for the Human Services Field), Phi Theta Kappa (National Honors Scholastic Society-promoting leadership,scholarship and service) note: this should help us out in community awareness, I’m working on something at campus and, hopefully I’ll be elected vice-president soon. Also, I am in the Transfer Program Club (Students that are transferring to four year colleges) note: I will be attending Bluefield College this fall and enrolling in Adult accelerated degree program for Social Science (15 months I’ll have my Bachelor’s Degree in Behavioral Science. I can’t wait!! I’m sure that I will go for my Master’s also.
I know how busy life can be for you so, if you need a buddy to talk too…I’M HERE FOR YOU, and I know that everyone else is too!
Good luck and God Bless,
Love, Felicia
January 4, 2005 at 6:18 pm #12919Good to know!
I have several projects in the air…I’m writing a piece on Red, Black and White Indians. Needless to say, Its an ugly topic, but needs to be writen by US! Recently, I have been employed to workat the Mashantucket Pequot Museum and Research Center. This gives me an oppertunity to flex my knowlege regarding Paleoarchaeology and gather new information as well.
Keep those awards coming. They play an important part when seeking higher employment and status in the community as well as the work force!
My work has been supported by THe Rhode Island Committee for the Humanities, The Rhode Island State Council on the Arts, The Rhode Island Foundation, RSDI, The Mashantucket Pequot Museum & Research Center, The Haffenreffer Museum of Anthropology (Brown University) and others. I am also listed in Who’s Who in America, 1000 Greatest Americans, The National Registry for Native American artists, Who’s Who in Women, and The Biographical Centre, Cambridge England for my contributions in Native American art, culture and language reconstruction.
LOL
January 4, 2005 at 6:18 pm #12923howdy —
Congratulations to both of you.
I struggled to get at a 3 pt gpa — had to study all the time, with no social life at all.
Way to go.

January 4, 2005 at 6:18 pm #12952Well Guys,
I have yet another reason to celebrate!
My divorce becomes final on January 14th @ 9Am. Please join in me in a moment of prayer as I look to the New Year for peace and deliverance, happiness and good health for me and my children!
LOL
January 4, 2005 at 6:18 pm #12954Julie,
🙂 Amen! You and your children are in my prayers. I’m with you all the way on that.
And, again you made me laugh. I LOVE THE WAY YOU THINK!:D

Love & Light, Lynella.
