DEVELOPMENT FOUNDATION

Board of Directors

Message from PRESIDENT SHIRLEY

A nother busy academic year has sailed by at Minot State University. The past year has included new initiatives and key milestones that are highlighted in the “Points of Pride” section of this 2015-16 President’s Report. As you will

note, there are numerous positive highlights demonstrating MSU’s significant impact toward both our students and the broader community. Please take a few minutes to review.

A major development in the MSU Advancement Office this year was the retirement of Marv Semrau as vice president, coupled with the subsequent appointment of Rick Hedberg as our new vice president. Marv has overseen tremendous progress and helped deliver substantial growth during the past decade. I am confident Rick will build on this momentum and strong foundation thereby ensuring continued growth. Rick is deeply connected to Minot State University as a graduate and through his longtime

employment as athletic director, and I know how much MSU means to him. Thank you Marv for your outstanding leadership, and congratulations Rick on your new position!

Another major milestone was the commitment in February from Clint Severson and Conni Ahart of $2 million to further support the Severson Entrepreneurship Academy. We further leveraged the gift by applying it to the North Dakota Higher Education Challenge Fund program, thus adding another 50 percent in state resources to their gift, resulting in a total endowment of $3 million. This gift is the largest in MSU’s history and will build upon their earlier significant gifts, supporting activities in our College of Business. Clint and Conni are extremely generous with their time, talents, and treasure, and give back in so many ways to the students, faculty and staff at MSU. We are especially grateful to Clint and Conni for their generosity, kindness and support. We are likewise thankful to the North Dakota Legislature, governor, lieutenant governor and State Board of Higher Education for supporting the challenge fund program.

In the “By the Numbers” section, you will note that 2016 has been an especially strong year for the MSU Development Foundation. Total support by all donors, as well as the total number of endowed scholarships, are both at historic high points. These milestones are simply not possible without the generosity and support of everyone reading this President’s Report. It is an exciting time at Minot State University because of news such as this, so THANK YOU for your support and helping create these exciting realities for MSU and our students!

As I write this column, the state of North Dakota is dealing with significant budgetary challenges related to a major economic slowdown due to a downturn in the energy sector and reduced commodity prices. These economic pressures have dramatically reduced state revenues below previous projections, and caused financial shortfalls and budget reductions for all state agencies (including Minot State University). We are making the necessary difficult decisions to address these challenges, and I am confident our team of dedicated faculty and staff is up to the challenges ensuring any adverse impacts to students are minimal. I don’t want to end on a negative note, but rather include these thoughts here to further underscore the importance of private giving and financial support from our donors and supporters. Your support for MSU programs and scholarships is always crucial, but probably never more important than it is right now. We are responding accordingly to these new economic realities, and I thank each of you for all you do to support MSU, and thank you for spending a little time reading this 2015-16 President’s Report.

Thank you, and as always, GO BEAVERS!

STEVEN W. SHIRLEY, PH.D., PRESIDENT

Rick Hedberg, Maynard Sandberg and Marv Semrau discuss future plans to supportMSU students.

It has evolved greatly over the years.

While alumni services and fundraising

units were established decades ago,

Advancement as it is known today emerged

in 1994. Marv Semrau became vice

president for advancement in 2007,

and in June 2016 Rick Hedberg assumed

the position.

“For more than 100 years, MSU has

provided learning opportunities that have

ultimately given graduates the ability to

make better lives for themselves, their

families and communities,” Semrau said.

“To be a small part of providing support to

Minot State students has been a blessing.”

During Semrau’s tenure, the number

of MSU Development Foundation

endowments soared, growing more than

50 percent. When he started, the founda-

tion’s assets were $9 million, $7 million

of which was used to fund student scholar-

ships. Today, the foundation has assets in

excess of $28 million, and approximately

$17 million is in endowment funds for

scholarships. In addition, the foundation

purchased property around the university

for future expansion, built Beaver Suites

student housing, and collaborated on

building Beaver Ridge Apartments, which

has commercial and rental properties.

“The VPA’s role is to match the desires

of donors with the needs of our students,”

Semrau said. “We have been fortunate

that so many have chosen to provide the

support they need to succeed. Students

are our future, and one day they will be

the alumni supporting the next generation

of students.”

While Semrau may have retired from

his post as VPA, he continues to serve

Minot State as senior development officer.

He will assist with the transition to

Hedberg, his successor, and focus on

major gifts and planned giving.

“We have built many strong relation-

ships over the years,” said Semrau. “I am

so grateful to be given the opportunity to

continue working for Minot State.”

Maynard Sandberg, MSU Development

Foundation president, appreciates Semrau’s

continued dedication to MSU.

“I am confident that Rick’s experience,

commitment and drive is just what we

need to keep the momentum going,”

said Sandberg.

Hedberg, a Parshall native and Minot

State grad, has spent nearly half his life as

either an MSU student or administrator.

He also has a strong family connection to

the university. His father, Addison, was an

MSU Board of Regent member. His wife

Andrea (Limke) ’92, her parents and all

four of her siblings attended MSU. His

brother, Randy Hedberg, graduated from

MSU in 1977.

Hedberg understands the importance of

giving. He and Andrea are members of the

Old Main Society and have been members

of the President’s Club since its inception.

“Academic accomplishments must be

rewarded with scholarships, and that is why

it is critical that we continue to grow and

prosper,” he said. “Our students are our

future, and we are here to support them.”

Hedberg has a proven track record of

success at MSU. Over the past 15 years

as MSU director of athletics, he success-

fully raised funds and secured sponsorships

within the Athletic Department.

In the past five years, he assisted in

securing millions of dollars for various

projects, including $4 million for the

new press box and suites at Herb Parker

Stadium, $1.8 million for a seasonal dome

over the field, $680,000 for a Daktronics

video board at the stadium and $650,000

for a state-of-the-art Daktronics video

board in the MSU Dome.

In addition, Hedberg’s years of service

to MSU have enabled him to establish

strong relationships with many benefactors.

He has developed relationships with

individuals on the MSU Development

Foundation board, Board of Regents and

Alumni Association board, individuals

on campus, in the community and across

the state.

“In my time at MSU, I have worked

closely with the Advancement Office and

the president on a variety of fundraising

activities,” Hedberg said. “Advancement has

really grown, and everyone is committed

to moving MSU forward, connecting

alumni, friends and donors. It takes

a team approach, and it’s so

important to allow donors

access to the president,

deans and professors.

Building relationships is

the key to fundraising.”

Hedberg has his eyes set

on the future with top-notch

publications, press releases,

marketing and more. From

four-year scholarships to

endowments to annual giving,

the sky is the limit.

“The foundation is in great shape,”

he said. “We have a strong board, and

by working together we will continue to

grow and support MSU students and the

university as a whole. I’m excited to see

what the future will bring.”

The Minot State University Advancement Office was established to serve students by building

relationships, generating support and raising funds to contribute to the university mission.

Minot State University upgraded the entertainment value of the MSU Dome in a big way!

In the summer of 2015, the MSU Athletic Department partnered with Daktronics, Inc. — the premiere video display

company in the country — to install the largest indoor video replay board in NCAA Division II, spanning much of the

north end of the third floor. The display is a 19 x 33-foot LED video panel that features live video, replays and can

accommodate a live scoreboard and in-game statistics. It is also used to enhance events such as commencement

and community functions. MSU collaborated with two anchor partners, Ryan Family Dealerships and IRET, and six

founding partners, Marketplace Foods, Applebee’s, American Bank Center, Jerome’s Collision Center, Buffalo Wild

Wings and McDonald’s to make this state of the art video display possible.

Minot State University received the largest

gift in its century-long history in February.

MSU receives historic gift

lumnus Clint Severson and Conni Ahart gave

$2 million to the College of Business to expand

the Severson Entrepreneurship Academy that they

established with an earlier $1 million gift.

Severson is CEO of Abaxis, a medical devices

company in northern California. The 1973 Minot State

graduate was named Forbes magazine’s entrepreneur

of the year in 2007.

The Minot native stresses that entrepreneurs drive

innovation, generate new jobs and create value. He

considers them the seed corn of American capitalism.

“We highly value the special skills necessary to be

successful in business,” Severson said. “MSU has

proven to be a worthwhile investment with the estab-

lishment of the academy.”

In addition to the Severson gift, the College of

Business received $1 million in matching funds from

the N.D. Higher Education Challenge Grant Program.

“The challenge fund was the deciding factor in our

decision to provide the funds to continue entrepre-

neurship training at Minot State long into the future,”

Severson added.

The Severson Entrepreneurship Academy features

multidisciplinary courses focused on starting new

businesses. It includes a resource center for student

research and a speaker series where successful en-

trepreneurs share their expertise. An Entrepreneurship

Club helps students analyze good and bad startups,

create business plans and discover sources of

investment money. It even provides seed money of

its own for exceptional student projects. One example

was the Beaver Brew Café, a coffee shop near the

campus. MSU students opened, operated and

eventually

sold the

business.

“The café

truly opened

my eyes to

what running a business

entails,” said broadcasting major

Ashley Busch, ’16. “So much more goes

into it than what you would think.”

The coffee shop became a learning lab

where hands-on experience replaced textbook

theory. Managers hired and trained workers,

maintained inventory, paid bills and dealt with

customer demands.

The entrepreneurship academy recruits

students from diverse academic disciplines, not

just traditional business fields.

“The synergy of different groups working together

brings unique perspectives,” explained Chuck Barney,

the academy’s director.

The newly acquired funds will enable the academy

to hire an additional faculty member, develop an

entrepreneurship major and minor and schedule

campus events to promote entrepreneurship.

Over the years, Severson has offered Abaxis

internships to exceptional Minot State students.

Some of these jobs led to permanent positions with

the company.

“Clint and Conni genuinely care for our students

and alumni,” said MSU President Steven Shirley.

“Their financial commitment is unparalleled in the long

history of Minot State.”

Creating a named scholarship through the Minot State University Development Foundation assists students and

leaves a legacy to Minot State University. It is also a meaningful way to honor family and friends.

The first step in establishing a scholarship is to determine whether you would like to establish an “endowed” scholarship or an “annual” scholarship:n Endowed Scholarships Endowed scholarship funds are designed to be permanent and

perpetual and can be created with gifts totaling a minimum amount of $10,000 contributed in full at the outset or with an initial commitment that is added to over time until the endowment level of $10,000 is reached. The principal of the fund is invested to produce income, and an annual award is made to a student(s). The principal remains untouched, so the endowment can last into perpetuity.

n Annual Scholarships Annual scholarships can be established with an outright gift of

any amount. Unlike an endowed scholarship described above, an annual scholarship is not a permanent fund and is awarded only as long as you (or others) choose to contribute to the fund.

ESTABLISHING A SCHOLARSHIP

As a scholarship donor, you choose the name of the scholarship as well as the criteria. The Office of Advancement staff is available to help you create the criteria for your scholarship. Endowed and annual scholar-ships at Minot State are awarded to deserving students based upon area of interest, geographical origin, leadership potential, merit, financial need, academic achievement or other criteria.

Typically, a selection committee carefully reviews the scholarship applications submitted by students and selects the most deserving recipient(s) based on the donor-estab-lished criteria.

Contributors of a scholarship fund are notified annually when the scholarship recipient(s) has been selected and are informed of the name, as well as the amount of the award. Recipients often write a thank you note to the donor, and in some cases, the recipient and donor are able to meet.
