Huron University 1

Chartered by Sioux Tribe in 1973, Si Tanka University started as the Cheyenne River Community College. The college then changed its name in July 1999 to honor one of its leaders, Si Tanka (Bigfoot). In May 2001, the small tribal college bought Huron University, a private, accredited four-year university established in 1883. Si Tanka/Huron University was notified in February 2002 that its accreditation had been approved by the Higher Learning Commission of the North Central Association of Colleges and Schools.
