Updated Presidential Directive
San Jos茅 State University鈥檚 Protocol for Curation, Inventory, and Repatriation of
Native American Remains Subject to the Native American and Graves Repatriation Act
(NAGPRA) and CalNAGPRA (California NAGPRA)
Respecting the dignity of our Native American and Indigenous communities 鈥� past, present and future 鈥� is of the utmost importance for the CSU system in general, and San Jos茅 State in particular. Our university maintains an extensive collection of Native American artifacts and human remains that is protected by state and federal laws. While a state auditor earlier this year commended 鲍鱼直播 for its compliance with these laws, there is still a need to ensure the continued protection of these items and ancestors until we reach our goal of complete repatriation.
