Dear University Community,

UCSB Office of the Chancellor



Dear Members of Our Campus Community,

During the past 24 months, we have been working with our campus community and the Office of the President to develop a greater understanding of the Native American Graves Protection & Repatriation Act (NAGPRA). These efforts have included extensive reviews, both internal and external to the University, and with the support of the Academic Senate. The result of these efforts was the University of California Policy on Native American Cultural Affiliation and Repatriation dated January 1, 2022.
