A naturalization ceremony was held in November 2022 at Columbia High School in East Greenbush, New York

On this episode of the Best of Our knowledge, we’ll attend naturalization ceremonies for new Americans – to hear from some of the country’s newest citizens and to speak with high school students who hosted a ceremony as part of their education on government.

And a $50 million endowment will support Bard College’s new Native American and Indigenous Studies program.
