Listing names and addresses of alumni from Huron College, originally founded in 1883 as Presbyterian University of Southern Dakota, located in Pierre. In 1897, the University moved to Huron and became Huron College. By 1915, the school had become accredited by the North Central Association of Colleges and Schools(NCA). Two years later one of its former students won a Rhodes Scholarship and in 1932 one of its attending students also won the award. One student was George M. McCune, co-developer of the McCune-Reischauer romanization of Korean. After numerous ownersip changes, in 2001 the University was purchased by Si Tanka College, a former community-college chartered by the Cheyenne River Sioux Tribe of the Cheyenne River Indian Reservation. Si Tanka College, named after the Teton Sioux chief of the same name, already had a campus in Eagle Butte, and both campuses became the two-campus Si Tanka University. The Huron campus became Si Tanka University-Huron, the first off-reservation university controlled by a Native American tribe. Very Good. Item #z02454
