I appreciate the symbolism of this move by the Jesuits.  At least they did not try to sell small plots, one by one.  Wonder what happened to the 12,500 acre ranch - is it still a school?

Interesting about the trouble finding the right the right office in the Bureau of Indian Affairs to process giving land back to the Native People.  Wonder how often that has happened?  I also wonder what other land, where, owned by which religious order is now sitting unused and essentially abandoned.  A tiny bit of justice would be to give Native People back the land that was stolen from them.
