DECEMBER 8, 2000 In a special feature today, The Billings Gazette takes a look at all the sides in the controversy over the leadership of the Little Big Horn College on the Crow Reservation in Montana. As a tribal court hearing occurs today to determine if Janine Pease Pretty On Top was terminated illegaly, many say the future of the college is in doubt. Students look up to her and consider her a role model and academics view her tenure as a success in the world of tribal colleges.
Some college trustees who oppose her say Pretty on Top hasn't really improved the school. Less than 10 graduated last year, when 100 were projected. Others say she has too much power, a criticism often laid on Clara Nomee, the tribe's controversial former leader.
