5 Northern’s students and alumni are making remarkable strides and showcasing the impact of a Northern State University education. In 2024, we were proud to see Dakotah Popehn (2017 graduate) compete in the marathon at the Paris Olympics, leading the race near the halfway mark and demonstrating the dedication and talent she honed at Northern. Success stories like Dakotah’s highlight how far a Northern education can take you—from students excelling at the National Honors Conference to marketing majors gaining hands-on experience at the Minnesota Twins Sales Training Event, and young alumni launching startups inspired by their undergraduate research. The Northern Experience is about personalized education, and it truly makes a difference. NSU continues to be blessed with the amazing support of the Northern State University Foundation, community partners, alumni, donors and friends. Your contributions provide scholarships, internships, and opportunities that make a real difference in students’ lives and the communities they will serve. Together we’re building a stronger future for Northern, our community and region. With gratitude, President Neal Schnoor
