Goals and History
Speel-Ya (Coyote Legend) was organized in the early 1970's and is one of Eastern's oldest active clubs. Speel-Ya is a social and cultural support group for new and returning students. They meet twice a month during Fall and Winter terms and once a week during Spring term. Smoke-signals is the club listserv. It provides a forum for discussion on issues that concern club members. |

Speel-Ya is involved in a number of events and activities that promote and enhance the cultural awareness of Eastern's general student body as well as the community of La Grande. They raise money for club trips, social gatherings and pizza parties. Speel-Ya leadership consists of a president, vice-president, secretary/treasurer and publicist. Each year Speel-Ya hosts the Annual Spring Celebration Pow Wow and Friendship Feast during the month of May each year. The Pow Wow draws support and participation from Native American communities throughout Oregon, Washington and Idaho. The American Indian Science & Engineering Society (AISES) is a national, nonprofit organization that promotes the education, professional development and advancement of American Indian and Alaskan Native students. EOU established its AISES college chapter in 1999. The chapter’s primary goals are to support students in their academic endeavors and encourage them to seek degrees and careers in the fields of science and technology.
