![["The Affiliated Tribes of the Northwest Indians are strongly opposed to a plan to regionalize BIA education without consultation with Indian tribes. The rationale for regionalizing BIA education includes placing line control of Indian schools under professional educators, allowing for more effective use of education positions, and better meeting the objectives of Indian education at the regional level. Regionalization would also facilitate transfer of BIA education facilities to public school districts and potentially allow for local control of schools by Indian groups. The plan is still in the initial planning stage and is subject to debate."]](https://jones-2.s3.amazonaws.com/Carl%20Albert%20Collection,%201947-1977/Departmental,%201945-1976%20(CAC_CC_001_4_0000_0000)/CAC_CC_001_4_82_55_0000-Interior%20-%20Bureau%20of%20Indian%20Affairs%20-%20Reorganization,%201970/Thumbnails/CAC_CC_001_4_82_55_0005_thumbnail.jpg "Affiliated Tribes of Northwest Indians: Opposition to the Regionalization of BIA Education Plan")
![["The Department of the Interior's Bureau of Indian Affairs is implementing a new policy requiring the rotation of managers and administrators every two to five years in order to better serve the needs of Indian people, improve Bureau programs, and provide opportunities for employee development. The policy aims to address issues with employees remaining in positions too long and difficulty in reassigning employees. The policy also includes changes in job descriptions for Field Administrators to emphasize the trust responsibility and shift away from paternalistic language. The Bureau is also making changes in delegation of authority to place control at the local level and transform the Bureau into a service organization."]](https://jones-2.s3.amazonaws.com/Carl%20Albert%20Collection,%201947-1977/Departmental,%201945-1976%20(CAC_CC_001_4_0000_0000)/CAC_CC_001_4_82_55_0000-Interior%20-%20Bureau%20of%20Indian%20Affairs%20-%20Reorganization,%201970/Thumbnails/CAC_CC_001_4_82_55_0007_thumbnail.jpg "New Policy for Employee Rotation in the Bureau of Indian Affairs")
