  • THANK YOU DARIEN Thank You Darien Derocher
    Vol. 54 No. 4 Published by the Minnesota State High School Coaches Association December 2016 THANK YOU DARIEN Thank you Darien DeRocher. Thank you for nearly 50 years of service to the Minnesota State High School Coaches Association and the thousands of members you have served over the past 50 years. Darien has chosen to step down as the Prep Coach editor so that he will be able to spend more time with his wife, Mary, as she goes through rehabilitation following a very serious fall, in their home, in October. Darien began his service to the Coaches of Minnesota serving as a delegate for District 16 in the years prior to being named as the Executive Secretary of the Minnesota State High School Coaches Association in 1975. Darien succeeded Art Avis. At the same time Darien started his tenure as Executive Secretary, he also took over the duties as Editor for the Prep Coach. Darien continued in that position through his tenure as Executive Secretary and for the past 16 years after retirement. That means that every Prep Coach since 1975 has been has poured into the MSHSCA can never be appreciated produced through the efforts of Darien. enough.

  • Strength in Employers Find Payoff in Hiring BSU Graduates Numbers | 1 PRESIDENT R
    A magazine for alumni and friends SPRING/SUMMER 2014 Strength in EMPLOYERS FIND PAYOFF IN HIRING BSU GRADUATES NUMBERS www.BemidjiState.edu | 1 PRESIDENT R. HANSON President’s Message The BSU Magazine does not typically have a theme, though last fall’s focus on our Imagine Tomorrow fundraising campaign was an exception. I do see a theme emerging from content in this edition – unintentionally perhaps, but in a way that reflects several fundamental strengths of our university, our students and our alumni. Those strengths can be summarized as success, gratitude and generosity. First of all, the cover story highlights employers with a track record of hiring Bemidji State University graduates in large numbers relative to their total workforce. When you dig into that phenomenon, you discover that our talented students have earned a reputation as hard workers who are ready to contribute from day one. You also find alums who both appreciate the quality of BSU graduates and are eager to help current students begin their careers. The story of alums Royal and Diane Orser recounts their lives of impressive achievement as educators in rural Nevada and their appreciation for the preparation they received at Bemidji State. Now they are paying it forward. This is no less true of alums Jack and Delphine Jacobsen, whose scholarship investment has enabled an older student like Thomas Jones to complete his education and help others through a career as a drug and alcohol counselor. A similar pattern is evident in the determination of graduates Tom Hill and Justin Kaney to establish the Bemidji Brewing Company and join with others in helping Bemidji thrive and grow.
