Thousands of loved ones sat in the audience as more than 400 undergraduate and graduate students walked through Minot State University’s commencement ceremony May 11 in the MSU Dome.
Commencement speakers senior Jacey Peterson and alumna Amy Leonard addressed Minot State University's Vision 2013 Strategy 6: "Creating a Commitment to Civic Engagement, Service and the Common Good."
Peterson, a Carpio native, completed a Bachelor of Science in Education with a major in business. She graduated summa cum laude with a 3.964 cumulative grade point average. She earned several scholarships and received the 2012 National Business Education Award of Merit. While a student, she was a Habitat for Humanity volunteer.
Leonard graduated from MSU in 1986 with a Bachelor of Arts in business administration. The Minot native is the senior vice president of product development and sourcing at Levi Strauss & Company for Levi's® Global Men's. She represents the company in public and educational forums speaking on sustainability and has spoken on Capitol Hill to politicians on the impact of climate change on the supply chain.
Honored guests included representatives from Minot Air Force Base, the American Red Cross and the North Dakota National Guard. Those organizations supported Minot and the region during the 2011 Souris River Flood.
Terry Hjelmstad, a retired Minot educator and administrator, represented the State Board of Higher Education. Hjelmstad's term expires June 30, 2015.
