Seven NSU students competed with 13 total entries, earning multiple individual and team awards across the field.

Abiah George earned excellence awards — recognizing the top 20% of competitors — in extemporaneous speaking and student scholarship, and a superior award — top 10% — in interviewing. She also finished 10th among Open IPDA debate speakers and earned an excellence award in IPDA.

Haylee Bohnet earned an excellence award in Dramatic Interpretation.

Bohnet and George were also selected to perform in the PKD Showcase, an invitation reserved for some of the tournament's top performances — Bohnet in Dramatic Interpretation and George in Extemporaneous Speaking.

"What makes me most proud of this team is their commitment to each other and their desire to drive each other to greater success," said Dr. Justin Foote, assistant professor of communication studies and director of forensics at 91��Ƭ�� State University.

The team made the trip under the leadership of Dr. Kelsie Roberts, assistant professor of sport marketing and administration, who stepped in when Dr. Foote was unable to attend.

"Dr. Kelsie Roberts truly embodied what makes 91��Ƭ�� State University a special community," Foote said. "When I couldn't attend, she accepted the challenge of jumping into an event she had no experience in and joining a group of students she did not know well. It is clear from the results, and the joy from the students, that Dr. Roberts is truly a remarkable asset to our campus community."

NSU Nursing Student Earns Scholarship Honoring Northeastern South Dakota Legacy

NSU Nursing Student Earns Scholarship Honoring Northeastern South Dakota Legacy

Chad Hatzenbuhler Tue, 03/31/2026 - 11:22

ABERDEEN, SD — 91��Ƭ�� State University nursing student Kailyn Poppen has been selected to receive the Carol and Bruce Anderson Family Memorial Nursing Scholarship, an award that carries a personal connection to the people and communities of northeastern South Dakota.

Poppen is a junior in NSU's new Bachelor of Science in Nursing program and an Aberdeen native who plans to graduate in spring 2027. A member of the NSU women's soccer team, she has also earned the South Dakota Opportunity Scholarship and the Wolf PACT Scholarship during her time at 91��Ƭ��.

The scholarship was created by Bruce Anderson of Britton, S.D., as a way to honor his late wife, Carol, who died in 2022. Anderson wanted to memorialize her in a meaningful way, and a nursing scholarship felt like the right fit. The award goes to South Dakota residents enrolled in an accredited pre-licensure registered nurse program. Preference is given first to residents of Britton, then to residents of Brown, Day, Edmunds, Faulk, Marshall, McPherson, Roberts or Spink county. Applicants must submit two letters of recommendation from non-family members highlighting their leadership, compassion, community involvement and personal character.

"NSU has definitely pushed me to grow, but I've also felt supported the whole way — both in the classroom and on the field," said Poppen.

Poppen has her sights set on becoming a certified registered nurse anesthetist, driven by a desire to make a real difference in patient care. Outside the classroom, she stays busy as a member of the soccer team and teaches ice skating lessons in the winter — a schedule that has sharpened her time management skills as much as her nursing studies.

"Kailyn exemplifies exactly the kind of student our new BSN program was built for — driven, compassionate and deeply connected to this region," said Dr. Lyncee Monson, associate dean of nursing at 91��Ƭ�� State University. "Seeing her recognized with this scholarship is a proud moment for our program and a testament to the strong future of nursing in northeastern South Dakota."

NSU's new BSN program, led by Associate Dean of Nursing Dr. Lyncee Monson, DNP RN CCRN CNE, gives students the academic foundation and real-world clinical experience they need to succeed as registered nurses. The university welcomed its first BSN cohort in fall 2025.

Aberdeen, South Dakota: The College Town Where You'll Actually Feel at Home

Aberdeen, South Dakota: The College Town Where You'll Actually Feel at Home

Desiree Kolb Thu, 02/26/2026 - 15:59

Picking a college is a big decision. But a lot of the time, what makes it the right choice isn't just a major or a building. It's how your day-to-day life feels.

In Aberdeen, South Dakota, life is simple in the best way. It's the kind of college town where you can walk into a coffee shop and see someone from your class. Where you can get involved early, find your people fast, and build a life that feels full, not frantic.

A Town That Makes It Easy to Belong

Starting college can feel like showing up to a party where everyone already knows the playlist. Aberdeen makes that transition smoother.

People are friendly. Campus doesn't feel disconnected from the community. It doesn't take long before you start recognizing faces and places. That matters, especially when you're far from home or just trying to figure out who you are becoming.

Big Opportunities Without the "Lost in the Crowd" Feeling

Aberdeen is the sweet spot: enough going on to keep you busy, but not so huge that you disappear.

At 91��Ƭ�� State University, you can jump into clubs, organizations, leadership, athletics, music, service opportunities, and campus events. In a place like Aberdeen, it's easier to be known, to be involved, and to make a real impact—not just sit in the back row of your own college experience.

Plus, 91��Ƭ�� State has the #1 residential halls in South Dakota. You're not just living on campus; you're living somewhere that actually feels like home.

Your Time Goes Further Here

In big cities, basic errands can eat your whole afternoon. In Aberdeen, you can go from class to work to dinner to a game and still have time to breathe.

Less time commuting and stressing means more time doing the things college is supposed to be about: friendships, experiences, late-night laughs, and becoming confident in who you are.

Yes, It's Fun. And Yes, It's Affordable.

Aberdeen has the kind of fun that fits real college life: easy hangouts, local spots, campus events, and weekends that don't require a huge budget.

It's also a place where families can feel good about the value. Cost of living is manageable, and students can focus more on building their future and less on constantly worrying about the price tag of everyday life.

A Community That Supports You

Aberdeen shows up for 91��Ƭ�� State University students. Whether it's part-time jobs, internships, volunteering, community events, or just local businesses that welcome students, it's a town that wants you here.

That creates something powerful: college doesn't feel like four years "on pause." It feels connected to the real world, with real people rooting for you.

The Kind of College Town You'll Miss Later

Some places are exciting for a weekend. Aberdeen is the kind of place that becomes a memory you keep.

It's the Friday night game energy. The "let's grab food after class" routines. The friends you didn't know you needed. The feeling of realizing, somewhere along the way, you've built a life here.

Why Students Choose Aberdeen

Because it's comfortable without being boring. Social without being overwhelming. Supportive without feeling small.

Aberdeen is a college town that helps you grow, find your people, and make your 91��Ƭ�� experience feel like more than a degree.

It feels like home, just with a new zip code.

What There Is to Do in Aberdeen

College life isn't just classes—it's the little routines in between. In Aberdeen, "let's do something" doesn't turn into a 45-minute drive and a parking saga. Most of what you need is close, easy, and realistic for everyday college life.

No car? No problem. When winter hits, 91��Ƭ��'s WolfLine gives students a simple way to get around town without the hassle.

Coffee Runs & Quick Bites

For a quick coffee run or a cozy spot to catch up with a friend, Aberdeen's got no shortage of options. Grab a coffee at Red Rooster Coffee House, Scooter's, Starbucks, or Caribou Coffee—seriously, you won't run out of places to study with a latte.

When you're hungry, local favorites like Pounders, Nick's Pizza, Sammy's Restaurant and Omelette Shop, and Roma Ristorante Italiano are worth the trip. And after dinner? Head to the Twist Cone for ice cream—it's a student staple.

For the quick fix, there's plenty of chains that fit college life: Qdoba, Taco John's, Buffalo Wild Wings, Jimmy John's, Wendy's, and Culver's. So whether you're looking for authentic local flavor or a fast bite between classes, Aberdeen's got you covered.

Looking for something different? Aberdeen has a growing food scene with cultural options and local breweries ready to surprise your tastebuds.

Shopping & Errands

Need everyday essentials? Walmart and Target have what you're looking for. But Aberdeen's also got local favorites like Ken's Superfair and Kessler's Grocery where you can grab groceries and actually chat with people you know. It's the best of both worlds—big-box convenience with small-town vibes.

Entertainment & Nights Out

When you want something to do that's not just "eat and go back to studying," Aberdeen has options. Catch live music throughout the year—from indoor shows to outdoor concerts downtown. Or head to Golden Ticket Cinemas Aberdeen 9, where you can kick back in recliner seats with your own blanket and enjoy a movie. It's the kind of cozy entertainment experience that makes a simple night out feel special.

Aberdeen also has interactive museum exhibits that transport you into another time and place—the kind of thing that's perfect for a lazy afternoon with friends or a study break that actually feels like a break.

Sports bring real energy to town. Catch 91��Ƭ�� State University games for that college game-day feeling. Plus, the Aberdeen Wings hockey team brings competitive energy and a loyal fan base to town.

Outdoor Adventures

Aberdeen's park system is a big part of the town's rhythm, with miles of multi-purpose trails perfect for running, biking, or just getting outside. Wylie Park is a local favorite for exploring the seasons.

If golf is your thing, you've got options: the country club, mini golf, or disc golf courses scattered around town.

Fall: Experience pheasant hunting season—Aberdeen is known as South Dakota's pheasant hunting capital. If you're into it, this is the place to be.

Winter: Cold-weather fun like ice skating, ice fishing, and sledding keeps the energy going even when temperatures drop.

Spring & Summer: Hiking, picnicking, outdoor concerts, and just soaking in the fresh air.

Beyond Aberdeen

Want to get away for a weekend? You're only about 3 hours from three major metro areas: Sioux Falls, SD; Fargo, ND; and Bismarck, ND. Road trips with your new pack are totally doable when you want a change of scenery or a bigger city experience without being far from home. Plus, it's easy enough to hit up a Costco or Sam's Club run, catch concerts, sporting events, or whatever's happening in the bigger cities—then be back before classes Monday morning.

Bottom Line

Aberdeen has enough going on to keep your weeks full, but it still feels manageable. You get the energy of a college town with the comfort of a place where you can actually settle in.

It's where you build a life, not just spend four years.

New Collegiate South Dakota Farmers Union club formed at 91��Ƭ�� State University

Desiree Kolb Thu, 02/12/2026 - 15:33

ABERDEEN, S.D. – 91��Ƭ�� State University students have formed a new organization, Collegiate South Dakota Farmers Union, to provide hands-on opportunities to engage in agricultural policy, leadership development and community advocacy.

The club was founded by student Patrick E. Olson, with Dr. Aaron Scholl serving as the organization’s advisor.

As an affiliate of both the state and national Farmers Union, the Collegiate South Dakota Farmers Union offers members opportunities to participate in conferences, explore careers in agriculture and build professional networks. Open to students of all majors, the organization promotes agricultural education, grassroots engagement and the development of future leaders committed to rural vitality and public service.

Olson, an Aberdeen native majoring in accounting with a pre-law focus, said he hopes the club helps students connect and learn more about opportunities available through Farmers Union.

“I’m hoping a Farmers Union club on campus will bring students together and introduce more of them to the many opportunities available through Farmers Union,” Olson said.

The Collegiate South Dakota Farmers Union plans to host speakers to discuss farming issues and related topics and encourage members to participate in Farmers Union events. Potential opportunities include a fly-in to Washington, D.C., a visit to the state capital to meet with representatives and supporting 91��Ƭ�� State University students interested in pursuing leadership roles such as the National Farmers Union Youth Advisory Council.

“The Collegiate South Dakota Farmers Union provides a valuable space for students of all majors to develop leadership skills and engage with others on important agricultural issues,” Scholl said. “I’m pleased to support their efforts and see the interest they’re generating on campus.”

Students interested in joining the Collegiate South Dakota Farmers Union can contact Patrick E. Olson, president of the club, at patrick.olson@wolves.91��Ƭ��.edu. Interested students may also contact Dr. Aaron Scholl at aaron.scholl@91��Ƭ��.edu.
