Hello there! My name is Daniel Orozco, and I go by he/him/his pronouns. I am thrilled to introduce myself as the Hall Director for Sevrinson Hall. Coming all the way from Waco, TX, I am excited to embark on this new journey with you all and embrace the cooler weather and snow that comes with fall and winter!

Being from a military family, I have moved around a lot within Texas, experienced Iowa a few years ago, and returned to Texas to complete high school and college. Since then, I have found myself missing the charm of colder climates like the snow, cozy hoodies, and vibrant fall leaves and colors. I earned both my undergraduate and graduate degrees at Baylor University, majoring in Biology and Higher Education and Student Affairs, respectively. With a passion for student development, as well as leadership cultivation, I am eager to collaborate with you all on various aspects of your collegiate journey.

My commitment to you is to serve as a supportive and compassionate resource throughout your time here at Sevrinson and NDSU. I look forward to getting to know each of you and assisting in any way I can!

History

Sevrinson Hall was one of the two high-rises to be built on the NDSU campus in 1967 as part of the "Gemini Project." The "Gemini Project" was the construction of two identical high-rises (the other being Thompson Hall). The high-rise is a nine-story structure that houses 272 students.

In 1969, the high-rise was named Sevrinson Hall in honor of Charles Sevrinson, Dean of Students from 1948 to 1964. Sevrinson was born on May 6, 1898 at Reynolds, North Dakota. He graduated from Mayville State Teachers College in 1921. Sevrinson later attended the University of North Dakota earning a bachelor's degree in 1924 and a master's degree in 1930.

Sevrinson began his educational career as a one-room school teacher before becoming the superintendent at Reynolds, North Dakota and the junior high school principal at Williston, North Dakota. In 1928, he came to the NDAC as an instructor in history. In 1938, Sevrinson rose to the rank of Professor of Education, Dean of Men and Assistant to the President. In 1948, he was made Dean of Students. Sevrinson held this position until his retirement in 1964. He died in 1986.
