Prestigious summer residential program will alternate between campuses each summer<\/strong><\/p>\n

GRAND FORKS, N.D., and FARGO, N.D., Aug. 31, 2023<\/strong> \u2013 After a four-year hiatus, the prestigious North Dakota Governor\u2019s School is back. The four-week residential program will alternate between the University of North Dakota and North Dakota State University each summer, with the first session being held at NDSU in the summer of 2024.<\/p>\n

The summer residential program, which began at NDSU in 1990, allows high-achieving, scholastically motivated North Dakota high school students who have completed their sophomore or junior year to engage in a specific discipline, such as science, technology, engineering, mathematics, energy law & legal studies, mental health, education, and health sciences.<\/p>\n

During their respective summers, NDSU will emphasize the STEM pathways and UND will focus on health sciences, education, energy law & legal studies, and mental health. Students who attend will be eligible to receive college credit.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are thrilled to have Governor\u2019s School return to NDSU as it aligns perfectly with our mission to engage learners in a transformative educational experience,\u201d said NDSU President David Cook. \u201cOur commitment to gaining, creating, and sharing knowledge and expertise is underscored by the unique opportunities this program offers students in North Dakota.\u201d<\/p>\n

UND President Andy Armacost agreed. \u201cWe at UND are grateful and pleased to co-host the North Dakota Governor\u2019s School and to provide an incredible opportunity for our state\u2019s high school students,” Armacost said. “NDSU did a great job hosting this program for 30 years, and we are delighted to join them in welcoming these students to our campuses.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Governor\u2019s School is in lockstep with our vision of inspiring a sense of wonder, a love of discovery and a commitment to serve, and North Dakotans can be proud of it,\u201d Armacost continued. \u201cI certainly am.\u201d<\/p>\n

An application process will open in October. Students will be selected based on personal essay submissions, academic and service records and recommendations from a teacher and counselor or principal.<\/p>\n

Stacy Duffield, director of the Office of Teaching and Learning at NDSU, said the goal is to have every county in state represented at the Governor\u2019s School.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are excited to bring academically gifted students to provide challenging and innovative learning experiences that allow them to explore their interests and talents,\u201d Duffield said.<\/p>\n

Karyn Plumm, UND\u2019s vice provost for Undergraduate Studies and Student Success, likewise voiced her support. \u201cWe\u2019re thrilled about this partnership with NDSU and the opportunity to work with our high achieving North Dakota high school students,\u201d Plumm said. \u201cOur faculty and staff look forward to highlighting the professional and graduate career opportunities available for students from across our state.\u201d<\/p>\n

The North Dakota Legislature provides Governor\u2019s School funding to help pay for student housing, dining, resident assistants, program directors, instructors and faculty research sponsors.<\/p>\n

This year, the Legislature appropriated $250,000 each summer for the 2023-25 biennium. The funds will allow about 50 students to attend North Dakota Governor\u2019s School next year. Sens. Ron Sorvaag, R-Fargo, and Larry Luick, R-Fairmount, were two of the sponsors for Senate Bill 2200, which provides funding for the NDGS program.<\/p>\n

\u201cI sponsored bringing back the Governor’s School, because it benefits our students, higher education institutions and our workforce. It provides exposure for North Dakota\u2019s top students to programs offered by our Research institutions,\u201d Sorvaag said. \u201cHopefully this will help them as they decide their future, which we hope will include staying in North Dakota to study and work. Most importantly, it will help them to better prepare for their future careers, wherever that leads them.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cMy wife and I have five children, and all five participated in the Governor\u2019s School program at NDSU in the past,\u201d Luick said. \u201cSTEM has been one of the main drivers for our interests to expose our children to a little more avid learning.\u00a0 I feel that making programs such as this for the students who want to excel in STEM, or other offerings, is critical to continuing the uninterrupted learning that they choose.<\/p>\n

\u201cI am certainly thankful for those who want to see this program continue, and am very thankful that the funding came through for the program as well. Many students will benefit from this, as my own children have.\u201d<\/p>\n

The North Dakota Governor\u2019s School is affiliated with more than 55 other Governor\u2019s School programs throughout 25 states in the National Conference of Governor\u2019s Schools.<\/p>\n
