About

Chickasaw Clemente Humanities Studies Courses:
“Chikashsha Imanapah” courses are offered at East Central University in Ada and Southeastern Oklahoma State University in Durant with three hours of college credit awarded upon successful completion of each course. Students explore the rich and diverse culture, history, government, language and experience of the Chickasaws in contrast to Western culture in the Clemente I course. Clemente II is similar in focus but compares and contrasts Chickasaw history and culture with various North American tribes.
