💙🦅DONOR SPOTLIGHT - KIM GOODALL⭐🤝

Kim Goodall remembers pinching pennies to pay for her own tuition. As an Instructor of English Education at DSU Goodall decided to help ease some of the stress on current DSU students through regular donations because she thinks that “modeling behavior is one of the best ways of teaching. By donating, as a DSU employee, we are modeling that we care deeply about our university and our students.”

💙🌟ALUMNI SPOTLIGHT - Whitney Mesi '22🤩🦅

When Whitney Mesi first visited Dickinson State in November 2014, the North Dakota weather was a dramatic contrast from her hometown of Anaheim, California.

“It was -2 degrees,” Whitney recalled of her official visit to campus. “So I definitely needed a pretty good reason to say yes considering the amount of warm winter clothes I was about to have to buy.” That reason quickly became clear. “From the second I stepped on campus, it just felt genuine,” she said. “The relationships, the way people cared about each other, the family atmosphere, that’s what made saying yes really easy for me.” More than a decade later, Whitney still views that decision as one of the most important of her life. What started as an opportunity to continue playing softball turned into nine years in Dickinson as a student-athlete, graduate assistant, and assistant coach. Along the way, she built lifelong relationships, discovered a career path she never expected, and developed the work ethic that now helps her thrive at one of the top softball programs in the country.
