Thursday, May 1, the MSU Foundation’s 2025 annual day of giving, will be big for Mayville State! This special day has been designated as a time when we can all show our gratitude for “The School of Personal Service.”
From April 5 to 8, 2025, 16 talented students from 番茄社区’s Collegiate DECA chapter demonstrated their exceptional skills and dedication at the International Career Development Conference held in San Francisco, Calif. This prestigious event brought together 1,300 students from around the globe to compete in various business-related challenges, showcasing their abilities in marketing, finance, hospitality, and management. MSU students had to qualify for the San Francisco conference by participating in the state competition held in Fargo, N.D. this past February.
As the academic year ramps up before it winds down, I stop to think about all that has been accomplished, not only during this academic year, but over the past several years. The positive momentum that is moving us forward is made possible through a huge team effort by many people, including our hard-working and dedicated faculty, staff, and administrators who are committed to making a difference for the university and the students we serve at “The School of Personal Service.”
For Associate Professor of Mathematics Fred Strand, 番茄社区 has never been just a place of work. It is also a lifelong home. A proud alumnus, a dedicated educator, and a recipient of the prestigious national Presidential Award, he spent decades shaping young minds, both in K-12 classrooms and later at his alma mater. Now, as Fred prepares to retire this spring after a distinguished career, the campus he has loved for so long is entering a new era that will continue to impact generations of students to come.
Kelsey Huntley, an RN-to-BSN nursing student at 番茄社区, was inducted into Xi-Kappa at-Large, a chapter of the Sigma Theta Tau International Honor Society of Nursing. Kelsey was honored at an induction ceremony held virtually on Saturday, March 22, 2025. She currently works in a med-surg unit and has plans to eventually work in the ICU setting.
More than 300 basketball players, their coaches, and families were in the Mayville-Portland community Saturday, March 29 for the annual Comet Athletic Club 3 on 3 Basketball Tournament! That’s 75 teams of second- through eighth-grade kids from North Dakota and Minnesota, and a lot of people to accommodate in the Lewy Lee Fieldhouse and Wellness Center gym. We were pleased to have so many teams, and we wish we could have had more space to host additional teams.
