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.

helped O’Keefe earn the NCAA
postgraduate scholarship as he
continued his education at the
University of Toronto. During his
final season at MSU, he earned four
top-four finishes and five top-10 finishes,
including second place at the NSIC/US
Bank Men’s Golf Championships.

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.
