You are invited to submit abstracts for papers to be presented at the
Mohican Seminar, hosted by Columbia-Greene Community College’s Native

The Mohican Seminar is being held in conjunction with the annual meeting
of the Native American Institute to stimulate knowledge, research, and
awareness of the varied eastern Algonquin peoples.  Academic and public

American history will come together to discuss topics and issues related
to Native American people and to share information and ideas regarding
historical research.
