ABERDEEN, S.D. – In two years, the Northern State University Educational Impact Campaign has raised more than $50 million—but that’s not the only fundraising success for the university and NSU Foundation.

During that same timeframe, $5 million has also been raised for student scholarships, officials announced Saturday, Nov. 16, at Northern Night.

ABERDEEN, S.D. – Northern State University’s Banking and Financial Services master’s degree program is now offered completely online – making it even more convenient for professionals looking to advance their career.

The program used to require a summer residency, but students would often have to use vacation time to come to campus, said NSU School of Business Interim Dean Dr. Doug Ohmer. If it didn’t work out, they would have to wait an entire year before they could finish the program.

ABERDEEN, S.D. – The Northern State University School of Business and the NSU Phi Beta Lambda/Business Club are sponsoring a series of seminars this fall on the Northern campus.

Each session of “Investing in Yourself Student Seminars” takes place in the NSU Johnson Fine Arts Center Room 117. The series kicked off earlier this week with Northern alum Gene Lorenz presenting “Building Your Financial Capital – Investing in Your Future.”

The remaining sessions—all of which are free and open to the public—are as follows:

ABERDEEN, S.D. – Acclaimed singer, songwriter, psychologist, author and actor Dr. Darryl Tonemah returns to Northern State University for a special performance at 7 p.m. Friday, Nov. 15.

Tonemah’s “Story and Song Concert,” sponsored by the NSU Native American Student Association, will commemorate Native American Month. The event, which is free and open to the public, will be held in Krikac Auditorium.

ABERDEEN, S.D. – As Northern State University prepares to kick off phase one of its Regional Sports Complex project, fundraising for the Educational Impact Campaign has moved beyond $50 million.

NSU President Dr. Tim Downs said he’s thrilled that the campaign has reached this milestone.

ABERDEEN, S.D. – The open house for Northern State University’s new Harvey C. Jewett IV Regional Science Education Center is now scheduled for 5-7 p.m. Thursday, Oct. 17.

ABERDEEN, S.D. – This year, the Northern State University Gypsy Day Parade will be led by Aberdeen couple Joe and Cindy Senger.
