Its been 24 years now since Miami University became the Miami RedHawks, but its been almost 50 years since the beginning of a new relationship between the university and the Miami Tribe of Oklahoma.
The Myaamia Center, some Miami University art education students and the Talawanda School District have collaborated the past three years on curriculum to help fourth graders learn about Myaamia culture and imagery. Starting this fall, the two Myaamia culture and imagery lessons will become part of the K-12 Ohio as America curriculum.
