New full-time recruiter connects with prospective students
Blaine Novak hit the ground running this summer after accepting the newly created position of recruitment coordinator for the NDSU College of Agriculture, Food Systems, and Natural Resources. He has been actively visiting high school classrooms, college fairs, 4-H and FFA events, and other venues to connect with prospective students. Between visits, he has been developing programming and materials to promote the college’s academic programs and student organizations. He works closely with the NDSU Admissions Office to ensure interested students can take the next steps to visit campus, meet with faculty or apply for admission.
Student recruitment is not new to Novak, who played a leading role in recruitment efforts for the NDSU Department of Animal Sciences where he was a lecturer since 2020.
An NDSU alum, Novak holds both a B.S. and M.S. in animal sciences.
Novak’s position is funded by the earnings of the Joe and Norma Peltier NDSU Vice President for Agriculture endowment.
