MOUNTAINEERS

Land Acknowledgement

We would like to acknowledge the land that The Ohio State University occupies is the ancestral and contemporary territory of the Shawnee, Potawatomi, Delaware, Miami, Peoria, Seneca, Wyandotte, Ojibwe, Cherokee, and many other Indigenous peoples. Specifically this land was ceded in the 1795 Treaty of Greenville and the forced removal of the tribes through the Indian Removal Act of 1830.

As a club that shares a love for the outdoors, we recognize that this land was unjustly taken through colonization and we acknowledge the lasting impact that this history has had on Indigenous communities. We support Indigenous sovereignty and encourage everyone to learn more about the history of this land.

Catch us biweekly on Thursdays at 7:30pm!
