  During Grant’s two terms as president his administration fostered a “peace policy” that sought to eliminate corruption to create fairness in the Federal Government’s dealing with the western tribes. Andy Hahn, director of the Campbell House Museum, will explore this policy, including Grant’s progressive step of appointing a Native American to the post if Commissioner of Indian Affairs and the formation of a new Board of Indian Commissioners which included St. Louisan Robert Campbell.
