Native American
The 31 tribal colleges of 1994 are represented as a system by the single membership of the American Indian Higher Education Consortium (AIHEC).
The AIHEC has its headquarters in Alexandria, Virginia. None of its member schools is located in Virginia. Instead they range from Michigan westwards to Alaska, Arizona, and California. Like many American associations, it has its headquarters in Alexandria and nearby cities and towns for ready access to Washington, D.C.

Famous quotes by native american:
“The Great Spirit, who made all things, made every thing for some use, and whatever use he designed anything for, that use it should always be put to. Now, when he made rum, he said ‘Let this be for the Indians to get drunk with,’ and it must be so.”
—Native American elder. Quoted in Benjamin Franklin, Autobiography, ch. 8 (written 1771-1790, published 1868)
