Yesterday, the Native American Studies Department held the retirement celebration for our beloved faculty member Dr. Martha Macri. Professor Macri (Cherokee Nation) began her career in 1988 as a lecturer for Native American Studies and Anthropology. She was a University of California President's Postdoctoral Fellow at UC Davis from 1990-1991 and joined the Native American Studies Department shortly after. Professor Macri served as the Rumsey Endowed Chair in California Indian Studies from 2007 to 2013. She specializes in Native American language revitalization, California Indian Studies, electronic data archiving, and non-alphabetic scripts (especially in ancient Mesoamerica).

We will greatly miss Professor Macri and we wish her all of the best during her retirement.

Pinigigi Professor Macri! Thank you!

    Welcome!

    Welcome to the Davis Native American Studies Graduate Student Blog. This blog was started as a place to update on all of the amazing work that is being done by the Graduate Students in the UC Davis Native American Studies Department. The Graduate Program in Native American Studies was approved in 1998, making UC Davis only the second university in the nation to offer a Ph.D. in Native American Studies. In Fall 1999, the Department welcomed its first group of students enrolled in the M.A. and Ph.D. Programs in Native American Studies.
