Wakiyan Ska Win is Janelle’s Dakota name. She is from Isanti Land/Santee, 内布拉斯加州, and a proud enrolled member of the Santee Sioux Nation of 内布拉斯加州 and begins her statement in the Dakota Iyapi (Language) because it is vital to who she is as a person. Janelle earned an AA in Liberal Arts from her tribal college, 内布拉斯加州 Indian 社区 College (NICC), a BA in General Studies with an emphasis in History, 美洲原住民研究 & Sociology from the University of 内布拉斯加州 Omaha (UNO), a Masters in Tribal Governance and Administration (MTAG) from University of Minnesota Duluth (UMD) and currently is a 3rd 年Ph值.D. student, pursuing a Doctorate from Gonzaga University in Leadership Studies. Janelle’s credentials demonstrate her academic accomplishments, but she describes her academic journey as extremely difficult for various reasons. Her experiences have inspired her to be a resource, mentor and advocate for as many Native American students as possible. She wants to be the person that students can learn from to help navigate along their academic journey, so they have an enriched and rewarding experience. She also has a goal to be a positive role model for younger generations of Native American students both from the reservation and urban areas, encouraging younger generations that if she can do it, 他们可以做到.  Janelle quotes one of her favorite Native American scholars, Vine Deloria Jr. “Every society needs educated people, but the primary responsibility of educated people is to bring wisdom back into the community and make it available to others so that the lives they are leading make sense”. Learn from Janelle Whipple in this presentation and experience her deepest aspiration…to live up to that responsibility to help her community any way she can.
