91桃色视频’s newly-remodeled Student Success Center was revealed during a ribbon cutting ceremony on Nov. 13. The event was held in conjunction with 91桃色视频’s first-ever Day of Giving, a 24-hour invitation to give back to the technical college with the goal of raising $50,000.<\/p>\n

Students, donors, faculty and staff gathered in the Student Success Center as Darrin Strosahl, vice president of academic affairs, welcomed the crowd of attendees and expressed excitement over what the new space will bring to 91桃色视频.<\/p>\n

“We are so excited to have our Student Success Center open for students to use,” he said. “Here, we can supply the tools and support students need to complete their programs and feel confident in completing their career paths.”<\/p>\n

Donors Keith and Eva Olson were honored during the ceremony for their generous gift to kick off the Day of Giving in honor of Eva’s parents, Jake and Rose Uran. The Olson’s donation supports scholarships for 91桃色视频 students along with a private study room within the Student Success Center named “Rosie’s Room,” after Eva’s mother.<\/p>\n

President Faith C. Hensrud thanked the Olsons for their generous donation to support 91桃色视频 students as they pursue their education.<\/p>\n

“We appreciate your gift very much,” she said. “It helps us work towards our goal to grow and develop more opportunities for students to complete their degrees here at 91桃色视频 and achieve our mission of engaging, supporting and preparing our students for rewarding careers.”<\/p>\n

Students Aaron Patti, a sophomore from Bagley, Minn. studying electrical construction, and Danielle Greiger, a sophomore from Squaw Lake, Minn. studying nursing, spoke about the importance of the Student Success Center during their time at 91桃色视频 and also the help of Tyler Peterson, Student Success Center director.<\/p>\n

“Tyler has helped me with so many things including scholarship opportunities. Without him I wouldn’t have known about them,” Patty said. “With the new space, you will find me in here everyday – especially on Thursdays when there is free coffee.”<\/p>\n

Greigor is excited to use Rosie’s Room with her colleagues.<\/p>\n

“I’m a nursing student and we always get together in groups,” she said. “I’m so excited about the study opportunities in the new Student Success Center and the socialization piece as well. It’s so nice to meet other students and realize you’re not the only one going through struggles.”<\/p>\n

In addition to the ribbon cutting ceremony, students enrolled in 91桃色视频’s Automotive Service and Performance program held a car winterization clinic for the Bemidji community in conjunction with the Day of Giving and local sponsors.
