Native Presence and Sovereignty in College begins with the Twin Warrior story rooted in Diné philosophy, as a theoretical framework that drives Dr. Amanda R. Tachine's in-depth analysis of Native students’ college experiences through an Indigenous, storytelling methodology. Dr. Tachine’s Story Rug qualitative approach “interconnects multiple story threads, from various contexts, time periods, and experiences into a cohesive patterned whole” (p. 17). This book is uniquely written with love of community and people at the center while concurrently offering cutting-edge research methodologies and theorizing. (Announcing the 2022 ASHE Award Recipients, 2022, https://www.ashe.ws/)
