We will be reading a selection of works by Calvin Luther Martin, J. Phillip Newell, and Gregory Bateson.

The TIP will hold biannual national and regional conferences and local seminars to discuss environment and American Indian issues. The meetings will be held this fall and next spring and are called the Grand Island Conference and Retreat Program.

Each regional conference will be preceded by Native American roundtables, the agendas being determined solely by American Indians who contact the TIP.
