In NDSU’s new video, “We Serve Our Citizens,” campus and community leaders talk about the growing demand for educated citizens and the ability and commitment of NDSU to contribute to the public good.
“We measure everything we do by the contributions we make to the people we serve,” NDSU President Dean L. Bresciani says in the opening.
The video emphasizes how NDSU is helping the business community meet its ever-growing need for innovative, intelligent leaders and employees.
“North Dakota State University is uniquely positioned to be the magnet and the mechanism for educating and producing the very people our state most desperately needs,” Bresciani says.
“We provide superb educational opportunities to the people of the state, we do research that addresses the concerns and problems facing North Dakota, and we do outreach and collaboration with communities to make life better for the citizens of North Dakota,” says NDSU Provost Beth Ingram.
The video also features Student Body President Sarah Russell and alumni Tim Brookins and Paul Richard. Brookins is a distinguished engineer at Microsoft, Fargo, N.D., and Richard is the president of Sanford Health, Fargo.
“At this time, North Dakota has many needs in regards to many of the different aspects of our business community,” Richard says. “NDSU meets the needs of the citizens of our state by preparing the students and future generations.”
As a student-focused, land-grant, research university, we serve our citizens.
