Mrs. Susan Davenport wrote a letter to Senator Dewey Bartlett requesting financial aid to continue her education in the Radiology Technology program at Tulsa Junior College. She expressed her financial struggles and the burden of tuition, books, fees, transportation, and other expenses. Senator Bartlett contacted the Bureau of Indian Affairs (BIA) in Muskogee, Oklahoma on her behalf. The BIA agreed to cover her tuition costs, books, and fees as a part-time student studying in a critical profession (Health Professions). The BIA also mentioned that special consideration was given to funding her request.
