Bringing college, careers, and entrepreneurship into the classroom!

Professor Stephanie Osborne visited @willistonschools as a guest lecturer, connecting with approximately 80 students across four classes! She shared insights on college and career preparation with three Financial Literacy classes and led hands-on entrepreneurship activities with a Business Fundamentals class.

Stephanie also reconnected with DSU alumni Carissa Calvillo, who teaches the classes. What a great opportunity to inspire students, build connections, and bring real-world learning to the classroom!

Yesterday, our Introduction to Exercise Science class welcomed Willie Jones, Strength and Conditioning Coach for the Miami Dolphins!

Originally from South Dakota, Willie shared his educational and professional journey, including his experiences coaching at the Universities of Nebraska, Illinois, and Minnesota, and how he made his way to the NFL. He discussed the importance of building relationships with athletes, constantly observing and learning, and reading to continue growing as a coach.

Students also had the opportunity to ask questions about his daily schedule, how strength training has evolved since his own days as an athlete, and the pros and cons of working as a strength and conditioning coach. Thank you, Willie, for sharing your experiences and giving our students a firsthand look into the profession!

It’s okay to not be okay. You don’t have to have it all figured out, and you don’t have to go through it alone. Your mental health matters, and asking for help is a sign of strength, not weakness.

Check in on a friend. Make time for yourself. Don’t be afraid to reach out for support. Remember that counseling is a safe place to talk, heal, and grow.

Whether you’re having a tough day or just need someone to talk to, you matter, your feelings are valid, and support is always worth seeking.

Let’s continue to break the stigma around mental health and remind one another that it’s okay to ask for help. Contact Laurie at dsu.counseling@dickinsonstate.edu

Academic aura is through the roof. President Scott Molander took us on a virtual tour of campus Gen Z style. From main character energy in the lounge to rolling in the grass, this tour is unhinged in the best way.

Head to the link in our bio to watch the full video on YouTube.

What was DSU like in the ’90s? Let’s take a look back. From Blue Hawk basketball and wrestling to cheerleaders, campus traditions and plenty of school spirit, some things never change.
