What does it take to be a mother, fighter for justice, volunteer, and student at Oglala Lakota College? According to Angela Sam, who is all these and more, it just takes “finding the time to do everything I want to do.”
The college selected Angie as outstanding college student of the year for 1995-96, not just for her academic achievements but also because of her involvement with the college and the community. Angie (Lakota/Mississippi Choctaw) maintained a 3.4 grade point average last year. As the student of the year, she received a scholarship from the Castle Rock Foundation through the American Indian College Fund.
