The Crow Tribe of Indians chartered little Big Horn College in January of 1980. The College began providing higher education and vocational training in 1981, with courses of study in business, home nursing, media production and general studies. The trustees, all Crow Tribal members, published the first catalog in 1983 and began accreditation correspondence. The small faculty and staff moved in the current building (previously the tribal gym building) in 1983. In 1984, the College applied for and received candidacy for accreditation with the Northwest Association of Schools and Colleges. The Trustees, faculty and staff worked diligently over the next six years to acquire accreditation at the community college level in June of 1990.

Since December, the Montana Reserved Water Rights Compact Commission and the Crow Tribe, working closely with the negotiating team for the United States, have engaged in intensive negotiations on the water rights issues. In April, the Tribe and the Compact Commission finalized a compact which provides for a significant water right for the Tribe while protecting the rights of all existing water users. At the same time, the Governor and Attorney General negotiated a final settlement of the contentious coal tax litigation. These two agreements will now be brought to a special session of the Montana Legislature for ratification, the first step in an approval process that will include Congressional authorization, a Crow tribal secret ballot referendum and ultimately approval by the Montana Water Court. The "Section 2" issue will be negotiated by the Tribe and United States and included in the Congressional settlement package.
