WASHINGTON (AP) - The Lilly Endowment Inc. is donating $30 million to
American Indian tribal colleges to help with construction and
renovation of often shabby campuses. The fund planned to announce the
gift Tuesday as the kickoff to a $120 million campaign to raise money
for improvements at 30 tribal colleges serving 26,000 students in 12
states. The drive thus far has taken in $43 million, including the
Lilly gift, said Suzette Brewer, spokeswoman for the American Indian
College Fund. Most of the 30 schools are community colleges run by
one or more tribes and located on reservations. Non-Indians also can
take classes at the schools, but the colleges get federal per-student
funding only for their Indian students. See
