The Minnesota Private College Research Foundation - Indian Education Project (MPCRF-IEP) provided additional financial support for programs that were unique, developmental, and Indian in their approach to expansion of higher educational opportunities for Native American students. Funding allocated by the Project was made on a dollar for dollar matching basis with the recipient colleges. Of the 10 participating private colleges, some provided all or part of their matching dollars through other external grant funds; others used institutional funds. MPCRF-IEP's overall accomplishments and contributions toward developing educational opportunities for Native Americans within Minnesota's private college sector were assessed. The evaluation design was the "Stake Evaluation Model" which builds upon three premises--antecedents (conditions existing prior to the Project), transactions (conditions brought about by the Project), and outcomes, both intended and unintended. Data were also obtained by on-site visits to seven of the colleges and from project records and data. MPCRF-IEP accomplished most of its intended goals. (NQ)
