We acknowledge that Lycoming College is situated on the traditional lands of Indigenous peoples and nations who were removed from this area without their consent through the practices of settler colonialism. Before their displacement, these peoples created and sustained thriving multilingual and multicultural communities. This area of the Northern Susquehanna River Valley was home to several Nations, including the Conoy, Haudenosaunee, Lenape, Mohican, Nanticoke, Saponi, Shawnee, Susquehannock, and Tutelo. As an educational institution, we embrace our responsibility to generate honest accounts of the past and to create a culture of respect for these nations and all other Indigenous nations, in both their past and present forms.
