Diné College Course Catalog 2008-2009 (pdf)

One College Multi-Site System
The main campus of Diné College is located at Tsaile (Tsééhílí), Arizona, which is interpreted as the “place where
the stream flows into the canyon.” Regional Sites at Window Rock, Chinle, Ganado, Kayenta, and Tuba City serve
Arizona residents as well as branch campus located in Shiprock and a site at Crownpoint which serves New Mexico
residents.
As a multi-campus institution, all sites offer educational programs which are transferable to four-year institutions
and prepare students for future employment. General Education program courses are offered at all sites and each
site offers limited degree programs. Developmental Studies is offered at all sites for students who need further
preparation for college-level academics. Courses in Navajo language, history, and culture are also available at all
sites. Tsaile Campus is unique, within the Diné College system, in serving both a residential student population and
a commuter population. It is also the administrative center for the College. Each of the Sites provides educational
opportunities, academic advisement, career counseling, and assistance with financial aid applications.
Designed in the circular, holistic tradition of the Navajo Hogan, the Tsaile Campus reflects the strength of the
Navajo culture. Administrative, instructional, eight recreational halls, and library facilities are situated in reverence
to traditional Navajo beliefs which is conducive to an environment of growth and academic success. The Tsaile
Campus has eight residential halls.
The Bureau of Indian Affairs and the Navajo Nation are the primary sources of revenue for the College. The states
of Arizona and New Mexico and grants from public and private sources augment Diné College’s revenue.
