Dickinson Indian School Public Contacts

The Public Sector

This section examines the relationship between the Carlisle Indian School and the town of Carlisle. We look at the interactions between the citizens of Carlisle and the students at the school. While Dickinson College is obviously a part of the public sphere of Carlisle, we would like to focus more on the town itself. Specifically, we look at the Catholic church in town and the congregation's reaction to Indian Students attending mass, the public reaction to the Indian School dominating the College athletically, and the public response to Pop Warner as the Indian School football coach.
