This year marked the 54th annual Time Out Wacipi Powwow, hosted by the University of North Dakota, and University photographers captured the festivities from all angles.<\/p>\n

Held April 17 and 18 at the Alerus Center, the Wacipi (wah-chee-pee) featured its traditional lineup of singing and dancing, both in celebration and competition.<\/p>\n

Among other celebrations each spring at the event, the UND Indians into Medicine program, or INMED, recognizes its students\u2019 achievements. Elders, advisory board members and honored guests drape graduates with a quilt in acknowledgement of their accomplishments and contribution to their communities.<\/p>\n

An extensive portfolio of these moments and others is available to view on Exposure<\/a><\/strong>, courtesy of UND staff photographers. Enjoy!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
