About

Chief Dull Knife College was established in September, 1975. Originally named Dull Knife Memorial College, the name was changed in 2001 to honor Chief Dull Knife, whose courage and strength guided the Northern Cheyenne to their homelands and fought for tribal sovereignty. In this legacy, the college now seeks to serve its students through education and cultural leadership. Students who attended the original institution gained skills primarily in the mining field, but offerings have since expanded, along with the student population. More recently constructed facilities were created using sustainable straw bale.

CDKC offers associate degrees (administrative assistant, business management, general studies) and certificate programs (office assistant). The College also offers a number of tribal language offerings.
