Regents to meet in Rapid City, open West River Center
RAPID CITY — The South Dakota Board of Regents will formally open the new Higher Education Center — West River, 515 West Blvd., at 5:30 p.m. today. . . .
The Higher Education Center — West River was established to provide a "one-stop shop" for all West River students interested in higher education programs.
Faculty members from four state institutions — Black Hills State University, Tech, University of South Dakota and South Dakota State University — have faculty members with offices at the center.
"We are providing a coordinated effort for course offerings for all residents in this area," Dean Myers, vice president for academic affairs at BHSU and director of the center, said in a news release. "By contacting the center, students can get information about financial aid, apply to universities and meet with representatives from the schools. The center is designed to handle all of their needs."
The center will work as a clearinghouse to avoid duplication of programs offered and will coordinate a plan to share professors. The center has a large classroom capable of holding 42 students and a small conference room for smaller classes.
The center's operation is directed by a consortium of BHSU president Thomas Flickema, Tech president Charles Ruch and Regents executive director Tad Perry.
Go State! ;D
