Dear Friends,At the Northern State University Foundation, student success is the focus. We support students through scholarships and through key investments that enhance the student experience for current and future generations.

These investments (scholarships and facilities) provide significant boosts to the economic development of Aberdeen, the northeast region and the entire state of South Dakota. Scholarships and facilities are also key to attracting new students to our region.

We strive to maximize our dollars, while constantly looking to add donors to this report and add major gifts to the corpus of our endowment. This past year, with your help, we are proud to announce we have done both.

Even with another successful year behind us, we are firmly and aggressively moving forward. Strategically, we are researching and examining every aspect of our operations – whether it is partnering with the university on the campus master plan and the $55 million Educational Impact Campaign, working on alternative investments, or continuing the expansion of our scholarship endowment.

The leadership and dedication of our many friends and donors, the Foundation Board and Executive Committee, and the Educational Impact Campaign committee members have made it possible to focus on the future. We look forward to another year of unleashing the potential of the Foundation, the students we benefit and the campus of Northern State University.

GOVERNOR SIGNS BILL MOVING NSU REGIONAL SPORTS COMPLEX FORWARD

With the governor’s signature in place, Northern State University’s on-campus regional sports complex is moving forward.

Gov. Kristi Noem has signed House Bill 1037, which authorizes the South Dakota Board of Regents to contract for the construction of the sports complex on the NSU campus.

The bill’s approval sets in motion the final project of the Educational Impact Campaign, a collaborative effort between Northern and the South Dakota School for the Blind and Visually Impaired.

“This feels like another game-changing moment, much like when we first kicked off the campaign a little over a year ago,” said NSU President Dr. Tim Downs. “While it’s exciting to have that final piece of the puzzle in place, the campaign now shifts to completing fundraising efforts – and a high-quality facility that will benefit our entire region.”

The Educational Impact Campaign, which first kicked off in fall 2017, involves three projects funded almost entirely by private donations. Besides the sports complex, that includes the Athletic and Recreation Fields project, which opened in fall 2018, and the new SDSBVI, currently under construction at the former NSU Jerde Hall site.

STRONG SUPPORT FOR CAMPAIGN

Support has been strong throughout the campaign, with numerous pledges from individual donors, area businesses and the city of Aberdeen. That support hasn’t gone unnoticed.

At HB1037’s hearing before the Legislature’s Joint Committee on Appropriations prior to approval in the House and Senate, Sen. Justin Cronin said the fact that the whole region is supporting this project is immense.

“You should be very proud of your alumni and of your community,” said Cronin, R-S.D.

Cronin pointed out that Northern came to the committee with a bill that’s fully funded, with a commitment to fund maintenance and repair. “How can a person sit here and say no?”

Sen. Brock Greenfield echoed Cronin’s sentiments, saying the area has invested countless millions of dollars into this project.

“Here’s a case in point in which the people have said this is how they want to spend their money,” said Greenfield, R-S.D. “I wholly support and endorse that, and I wish the folks at Northern well with this project, and the folks of the region well because a lot of people will be benefiting from this for years and years to come.”

SUPPORT FROM TWO GOVERNORS

The Legislature also approved bills last year related to Educational Impact Campaign projects. That included authorizing a land swap – relocating the SDSBVI to the former site of NSU’s Jerde Hall and allowing Northern to use the current SDSBVI site for the regional sports complex.

Also in 2018, former Gov. Dennis Daugaard approved a $2.5 million grant from the Governor’s Office of Economic Development Future Fund for construction of the new SDSBVI. The same amount was later awarded by Gov. Kristi Noem.

“With Gov. Noem’s signature, this campaign has now had the support of two South Dakota governors and two legislative sessions, and we’re extremely grateful for that,” Downs said. “These projects will enhance the student experience for years to come and also be a tremendous boost for the entire region, and we’re thrilled that our state’s leadership recognizes their importance.”

KESSLER’S GROCERY STORE GIVES GIFT TO NSU REGIONAL SPORTS COMPLEX

Kessler’s grocery store knows how important Northern State University is to the community – that’s why the longtime local business decided to give a gift to the Educational Impact Campaign.

The Kessler’s gift will support the NSU Regional Sports Complex and Athletic and Recreation Fields project, said Reed Kessler.

“Northern State University is vital to the continued growth and development of our community,” Kessler said. “When Northern does well – it creates a ripple effect to the rest of us.”

Kessler said the business has always had a great relationship with Northern.

“We employ several NSU students in our store,” he said. “We are always excited for the fall to welcome our student employees back after summer break. Some of those students have stayed with us long after graduation and have found permanent jobs with Kessler’s.”

LONGTIME EMPLOYEE STARTED AS NSU STUDENT

One great example: Tim William, who started working at Kessler’s as a bagger while a student at NSU. He was quickly promoted into a supervisor position on the floor.

“He completed an internship in the business office and after graduation, he was hired in our accounting department,” Kessler said. “Twenty-one years later Tim is still employed with Kessler’s and we couldn’t be happier!”

Kessler said Northern brings back years of memories from his own childhood up to today.

“Fall football games at Swisher, basketball games at Wachs and the Gypsy Day Parade are just a few of my favorite memories,” he said. “It’s even more fun watching my own children light up with excitement when we attend activities today. NSU has established great traditions over the years and I’m excited to pass them down to my family.”

Being a local business comes with challenges, Kessler said, but supporting the growth of organizations such as Northern State University can help you overcome those.

NSU BRINGS NEW CUSTOMERS, LARGER EMPLOYEE POOL

“NSU brings us new customers year after year and also brings us a larger more qualified employee pool,” he said. “We are lucky to have such a strong education system in our backyard.”

NSU President Dr. Tim Downs expressed gratitude to Kessler’s for the generous gift.

“Kessler’s is a phenomenal community partner, and we’re so thankful for the support,” Downs said. “We’ve been very fortunate to have such a strong commitment from around the region, and we’re thrilled that our stakeholders believe in our vision and are committed to seeing this campaign completed.”

A brand new wolf will soon be watching over the Jewett Regional Science Education Center when it opens this fall at Northern State University.

South Dakota sculptor John Lopez is creating the wolf sculpture, which will stand in front of the main entrance of the science center.

“My inspiration was the wolf itself – the strength and power they possess,” Lopez said. “I like to find a motion or design within all the animals I do and a wolf has so much long hair that I could really go for it with a different kind of texture than I have attempted before.”

The sculpture is the size of a life-sized wolf, Lopez said, and is fabricated out of found objects and shapes of steel that he cut with his plasma cutter.

“I use materials that I find on local farms and ranches near my studio in Lemmon,” he said.

A Northern graduate, Lopez said he discovered his gift for sculpture at Northern.

“I fell in love with the bronze casting process and cast three of my very first castings in the foundry on campus,” he said. “I was hooked and pursued a career in sculpture from then on.”

Lopez said the sculpture – which was made possible by the generosity of a donor family – is complete and ready for installation. He plans to be present for the unveiling.

The science center is nearly complete at the corner of South State Street and Twelfth Avenue Southeast. The facility, which provides a new home for Northern’s biology and chemistry departments, will open for classes this fall.

Northern State University has been such a large part of Kristen and Derrick Dinger’s lives that the couple decided to give back.

The former Wolves athletes have given a gift to the Koehler Hall of Fame Softball Field/NSU Regional Sports Complex, part of the Educational Impact Campaign.

“Northern has given so much to us and our family, not only through our own education and athletic experiences, but also through entertainment, friendships, camps for our kids, and the list goes on and on,” said Kristen Dinger.

She played volleyball and softball at Northern from 1998 to 2002, and Derrick Dinger played baseball those same years. The couple remained in the Aberdeen community after graduation and now live in Fargo.

“Northern is such a special place and impacts the community in ways we didn’t even realize until we moved to Fargo,” Kristen Dinger said. “Every event we attend at Northern, we feel like we are at home.”

Their kids are always involved in various camps and tournaments at Northern, so their family directly benefits from the use of the facilities.

HOPE TO INSPIRE OTHERS TO GIVE

“Northern has always ‘paid it forward’ to our family, and it feels good to be able to give back so that Northern can continue to impact other families,” Derrick Dinger said. “We really hope our gift will inspire others to think about the impact Northern has had on their life and their family and consider giving to Northern and the Educational Impact Campaign.”

Northern has also been a huge part of helping the Dingers grow their business, Northwestern Mutual, not only in Aberdeen but now in Fargo.

“Our last year in Aberdeen our office had 12 interns and most of them attended NSU,” Derrick Dinger said. “Over the years Northern has helped us build relationships with the students, and the students have had an opportunity to stay in the community or the region.”

At one point, 10 former student-athletes were working in either their Aberdeen, Watertown or Bismarck offices. Even after their move to Fargo, they have been surrounded by former NSU athletes: Logan Dosch, Kami Smesmo and Matt Anderson all made the move north with them.

NSU GRATEFUL FOR ALUMNI SUPPORT

NSU Director of Athletics Josh Moon expressed gratitude to the Dingers for their strong support of the university.

“We’re thankful that the Dingers have chosen to contribute to this campaign, which will have a huge impact for future generations of Wolves,” Moon said. “We hope other young alums see the value in being a part of this project as well.”

The $55 million Educational Impact Campaign also includes the NSU Athletic and Recreation Fields, which opened in fall 2018, and a new South Dakota School for the Blind and Visually Impaired facility, which is expected to be completed in fall 2019. Fundraising for the campaign is ongoing. For more information, contact the NSU Foundation at nsualumni@northern.edu or 605-626-2550.

YOUNGMANS’ GIFTS TO NORTHERN PROVIDE STUDENT SCHOLARSHIPSRoger Youngman wishes every young person who wanted to go to college could get funding to do so.

He and his wife, Karen, are doing their part to make a difference – their gifts to Northern State University provide scholarships for students who otherwise wouldn’t be able to attend college.

“We both believe strongly in helping young people out,” said Roger Youngman, a 1963 Northern grad.

The Youngmans have an endowment through the NSU Foundation and have provided scholarship money for football, basketball and fine arts students. Their contributions have also helped with the Educational Impact Campaign.

Originally from Hecla, the Youngmans both studied at Northern – Karen attended for one year, and Roger graduated with a majors in mathematics and physical science and education. Roger played football all four years and recalls going to the national playoffs his junior and senior years.

He also recalls attending classes in old Quonset huts when the Central Building burned down in spring 1960. He remembers good friends and great teachers, including Louise Stolle, a math instructor was also originally from Hecla.

Now retired in Aberdeen, the couple likes to attend NSU athletics and fine arts events.

“It’s so much fun to watch them perform,” Karen Youngman said.

Roger said Northern has been very progressive over the years getting good leaders and coaches.

“To me, Northern’s the hub of the region,” he said. “Where you have good schools, you have good people coming in.”

The new additions – the Athletic and Recreation Fields, residence halls, Regional Science Education Center, School for the Blind and Visually Impaired and Regional Sports Complex – have really made a difference on campus.

“Those things sell themselves,” Roger said. “And I think the coaches do an outstanding job of recruiting quality athletes – quality people.”

A second $2.5 million state grant has been awarded for construction of the School for the Blind and Visually Impaired, part of the school’s joint Educational Impact Campaign with Northern State University.

The grant comes from the Governor’s Office of Economic Development Future Fund.

“I’m grateful for the leadership and partnership of Northern State University and the South Dakota School for the Blind and Visually Impaired,” said Gov. Kristi Noem. “I’m confident their shared vision for success will create an even stronger powerhouse for education in the northeast part of our state. This grant will ensure the continued legacy of quality education and excellent student engagement for years to come.”

The grant follows the same amount awarded last year from the same fund by former Gov. Dennis Daugaard. Together, they match the city of Aberdeen’s pledge of $5 million to the Educational Impact Campaign.

“Each of these gifts hinged on the other, and this type of interconnected giving is a perfect example of the all-encompassing support we’ve received for the Educational Impact Campaign,” said NSU President Dr. Tim Downs. “We’re grateful to both governors, the city and to the donors around the region for their continued commitment to Northern and the School for the Blind and Visually Impaired.”

SDSBVI Superintendent Marje Kaiser expressed gratitude as well.

“It’s wonderful to receive this level of support from not one but two governors along with the city, and I can’t thank them enough,” Kaiser said. “I’m thrilled that they recognize how beneficial this project will be not only to our students but also to the region, as a new facility will ensure we’ll be able to remain in Aberdeen.”
