Land Acknowledgement

As a land-grant institution, Utah State University campuses and centers reside and operate on the original territories of the eight tribes of Utah, who have been living, working, and residing on this land from time immemorial. These tribes are the Confederated Tribes of the Goshute Indians, Navajo Nation, Ute Indian Tribe, Northwest Band of Shoshone, Paiute Indian Tribe of Utah, San Juan Southern Paiute, Skull Valley Band of Goshute, and the White Mesa Band of the Ute Mountain Ute. We recognize Elders past and present as as peoples who have cared for, and continue to care for, the land. In offering this acknowledgement, we affirm indigenous self-governance history, experiences, and resiliency of the Native people who are still here today.
