TitleHigher Ed Center Cuts The Rope Today
TranscriptHigher Education Center West River 515 West Blvd. Rapid City, SD 57701 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE April 28, 2005 Contacts: Steve Buchholz, School of Mines, 394-6082 Corinne Hansen, BHSU, 642-6215 Higher Ed Center Cuts The Rope Today The Rapid City Area Chamber of Commerce will welcome the Higher Education Center West River to Rapid City during a rope-cutting scheduled for 10:30 a.m. today, Thursday, April 28, at the center, 515 West Blvd. West River residents who want to pursue their higher education goals now have an easy, efficient way to find the information they need, thanks to the Higher Education Center West River. The Higher Education Center - West River was established to provide a "one-stop shop" for all West River area students considering enrolling in higher educational programs at the undergraduate and graduate level. Some courses and programs will be taught at the center. The purpose of the Center is to provide a cooperative and collaborative effort from the participating universities Black Hills State, School of Mines, University of South Dakota and South Dakota State to meet the needs of students especially the large population base in western South Dakota. The center is striving to be responsive to the needs of residents in the entire West River region. One of the first tasks for the center will be assessing what those needs are and formulating a plan to meet them. The Center plans to conduct market research to find out what programs are needed and what needs are currently not being met. The Center will work as a clearinghouse to avoid duplicate coursework and facilitate a plan to share professors for courses offered by separate universities. The center's location near downtown Rapid City includes more than a dozen offices and a large classroom and houses representatives from several universities. #30#
