Abstract
Tne Education Department of the Cherokee Nation of Oklahoma had its hands full in early 1984. The second 30-member class of the high school Youth Leadership Program conciuded its year-long series of meetings and projects, while a new group was recruited for the 10-day National Leadership Conference in Minnesota. Fifteen graduates of last year's Leadership Program prepared for a 1500-mile bike trip retracing the Trail of Tears from North Carolina to Oklahoma, at the same time that a team of high school and college students planned for the Second Annual Indian Youth Leadership Conference (for one hundred 7th and 8th graders) in June.
