College of the Muscogee Nation
College of the Muscogee Nation (CMN) is a public tribal community college in Okmulgee, Oklahoma, the capital of the Muscogee (Creek) Nation. History
It was established in 2004 by an act of the Muscogee (Creek) Nation National Council. On 7 November 2009, Muscogee (Creek) citizens voted in support of the College of the
Muscogee Nation becoming a constitutional college. Passage of the referendum resulted in the College Board of Regents becoming Article XIII in the Constitution of the Muscogee (Creek) Nation. The college is a member of the American Indian Higher Education Consortium, and was designated as a 1994 Land-Grant institution in the 2014 Farm Bill. As of November 2020, 90% of the faculty were reported to be "American Indian or Alaska Native" and 60% were reported as female. CMN was granted Initial Accreditation by the Higher Learning Commission in November 2016. The accreditation was renewed 15 December 2020, with the next accreditation review scheduled for 2026–2027. Governance
The Board of Regents is the governing board of the College of the Muscogee Nation, guaranteed by the Muscogee (Creek) Nation Constitution and in the College Charter. The CMN's governance consists of a five-member board of regents of Muscogee citizens who meet monthly. Board members are nominated by the Principal Chief and approved by the National Council.
