The use of cameras in the auditorium by members of the audience is prohibited. rllis Js VOJlr Universill/ CHARTERED in February, 1851, by the Legislative Assembly of the Territory of Minnesota, the University of Minnesota this year celebrated its one hundred and eleventh birthday. In the coming year, it will join with Land-Grant colleges and state universities throughout the nation in observing the centennial of the Land-Grant Act which created educational opportunities for all citizens and which embodied the concept that the welfare of the nation is dependent on the advancement of learning. As one of the great Land-Grant universities in the nation, the University of :Minnesota is dedicated to training the youth of today, the citizens of tomorrow. Each year, physicians, lawyers, engineers, social workers, educators, journalists, dentists, veterinarians, farmers, businessmen-community and civic leaders in all fields-go from its several campuses to participate actively in the upgrading of the welfare of the citizens of our state. During the period of its existence the University has awarded more than 157,000 degrees to its students who have completed the rigorous training demanded by the complexities of modern society. In addition to giving collegiate instruction to more than 30,000 students on its Minneapolis, St. Paul, Duluth, and Morris Campuses, the University offers, through its Schools of Agriculture and its General Extension Division, special­ ized training designed to assist those who wish to study on a part-time basis. Still in addition, its staff members who are county agents, home agents, 4-H Club agents, and recreation and health consultants give effective assistance to citizens of the state in their very homes. In the diverse research laboratories on the University's four campuses, at the several agricultural experiment stations scattered throughout the state, at the Rosemount Research Center, the Cloquet Forest Research Center, the Cedar Creek Natural History Area near Bethel, the Fruit Breeding Farm and the Arboretum at Excelsior, the Lake Itasca Forestry and Biological Station, the Mayo Foundation at Rochester, the Hormel Institute at Austin, and at Univer­ sity Hospitals, University scientists are working on countless research experi­ ments of vital importance to the future health and welfare of us all. These projects deal with cancer, heart surgery, taconite, gamma irradiation, cheese­ making, teacher training, municipal government, school surveys, and new va­ rieties of grains, fruits, and flowers to mention only a few. THE UNIVERSITY is recognized as the cultural hub of the Northwest; it is the home of the University Artists Course, Radio Station KUOM, the Uni­ versity Theater, the Minneapolis Symphony Orchestra, and the local perform­ ances of the Metropolitan Opera Company. Through the University of Minne­ sota Program Service, the University brings to more than a million and a half people in the area it serves, artists and lecturers of quality and talent. The people of Minnesota are proud of their University, not only because it is one of the leading state universities in the nation, but also because of the ,extent and quality of its services from which they, their families, communities, land organizations benefit. Their interest in the University is a dynamic, living thing and expresses itself in many ways. Contributions from them have made it possible for the Variety Club Heart Hospital and the great Mayo Memorial III Building to be constructed. Through the American Legion and its auxiliary posts all over the state, thousands of friends have made generous donations to provide an endowed research professorship in heart disease. Contributions have made it possible to build the Masonic Memorial Hospital, the Veterans of For­ eign Wars Cancer Research Center, and Diehl Hall (which houses the biologi­ cal-medical library and additional medical research facilities). Equally generous have been the contributions made by corporations, associa­ tions, foundations, trade unions, clubs, and individuals, whose thoughtful co­ operation has made hundreds of scholarships and fellowships available each year to students of promise. Chiefly because of financial difficulties, only one-half of the Minnesota high school graduates of high ability enter any college or uni­ versity. Because of this, the friends and supporters of the University are con­ stantly trying to increase the number of scholarships and the amount of money available for such assistance. Over recent years, much of the University's energy has gone into the neces­ sary planning for the anticipated increases in future enrollments. At present about half of the students in Minnesota colleges and universities attend the University of Minnesota. If the other institutions continue to take this same percentage of these students, not less than 47,000 full-time, fully matriculated students will be attending the University in 1970. This means more teachers, more civil service staff members, more land, and more buildings. THE 1959 LEGISLATURE granted the University $49,068,181 for general maintenance during the 1961-63 biennium. In addition, the University re­ ceived $6,938,423 for University Hospitals; $4,432,496 for special appro­ priations, including special extension and research activities; and $7,789,351 ($288,451 now available) for new buildings, land, and for the rehabilitation of existing buildings. Each year the University publishes and widely circulates a summary financial statement, which is available to anyone upon request as is a much more com­ prehensive and complete statement for those who wish to make a special study of the University's income and expenditures. The summary financial statement of 1960-61 showed that the University received $99,915,127.70 and spent $99,915,799.55 including $7,071,288.38 paid for the construction and remodeling of buildings and the purchase of land. Of the total received, $17,296,674.64 came from student tuition and fees, hospital and other department receipts; $1,642,152.76 from intercollegiate athletics, $16,187,501.59 from such services as dormitories and dining halls, printing, the laundry, the University of Minnesota Press, the Department of Concerts and Lectures, the University Theater, and the Health Service, and from revolving funds; and $22,781,979.60 from trust funds, including gifts, grants, donations, and income from endowments and research contracts for in­ struction, research, prizes, scholarships, and the care of the sick. Also $4,301,- 271.13 came from federal appropriations for instruction, research, Agricultural Extension, and plant expansion. The state provided $30,468,443.07, or 35.0% for the University's total operating costs. All students at the University, their families and friends are invited to con­ tinue their enthusiasm and interest in the University of Minnesota. Graduates are especially urged to identify themselves with the Minnesota Alumni Associa­ tion and the Greater University Fund and to return as frequently as possible to visit us here at the University.

Fleksibel transport betyr at kundene selv forhåndsbestiller en tur fra A til B basert på sitt reisebehov. Det er ikke knyttet opp mot faste rutetider eller faste ruter, men innenfor bestemte soner og åpningstider. Bestillingen skjer via bestillingsløsning i app, men kan også bestilles pr telefon. Fleksibel transport blir en viktig del av det totale kollektivtilbudet fra høsten 2021. Tilbudet er delt i 11 kontrakter. • Taxi Midt-Norge har vunnet 4 kontrakter og skal tilby fleksibel transport i Leka, Nærøysund, Grong, Høylandet, Lierne, Namsskogan, Røyrvik, Snåsa, Frosta, Inderøy og Levanger, deler av Steinkjer og Verdal, Indre Fosen, Osen, Ørland og Åfjord. • TrønderTaxi har vunnet 4 kontakter og skal tilby fleksibel transport i Meråker, Selbu, Tydal, Stjørdal, Frøya, Heim, Hitra, Orkland, Rindal, Melhus, Skaun, Midtre Gauldal, Oppdal og Rennebu. • Vy Buss skal drifte fleksibel transport tilpasset by på Steinkjer og Verdal, som er en ny og brukertilpasset måte å tilby transport til innbyggerne på, og som kommer i tillegg til rutegående tilbud med buss.Vy Buss vant også kontraktene i Holtålen, Namsos og Flatanger i tillegg til to pilotprosjekter for fleksibel transport i Røros og Overhalla, der målet er å utvikle framtidens mobilitetstilbud i distriktene, og service og tilbringertransport i områdene rundt disse pilotområdene.

Welcome to the Tre Lag Stevne in South Saint Paul, Minnesota. We were last in the Twin Cities area in 2009 in this same location. In a metropolitan area of this size it is not as easy to see the results of the Norwegian immigration as in smaller towns and rural communities. But the evidence is there if you look for it. This year’s speakers will tell the story of the Norwegians who contributed to the richness of American culture through literature, art, architecture, politics, medicine and science. You may recognize a few of their names, but many are unsung heroes who quietly added strands to the fabric of America and the world. We hope to astonish you with the diversity of their talents. Our tour will take us to the first Norwegian church in America, which was moved from Muskego, Wisconsin to the grounds of Luther Seminary,. We’ll stop at Mindekirken, established in 1922 with the mission of retaining Norwegian heritage. It continues that mission today. We will also visit Norway House, the newest organization to promote Norwegian connectedness. Enjoy the program, make new friends, reconnect with old friends, and continue to learn about our shared heritage.

  • ANNUAL REPORT 2020 Dear Friends
    Catholic Community FOUNDATION OF MINNESOTA onlyCOMMUNION IN THE MIDST OF CRISIS together ANNUAL REPORT 2020 Dear Friends, None of us will forget 2020 anytime soon. The pandemic, together with the social unrest in the wake of George Floyd’s unjust death, have taken a heavy toll. At the same time, I’m very proud of how our Catholic community has responded. In the midst of dual crises, in a time of fear and uncertainty, we have come together to help our neighbors and support Catholic organizations. Only together can we achieve success, as Archbishop Hebda says, “On our own, there’s little that we’re able to accomplish. It’s only with collaboration, involving the thinking and generosity of many folks that we’re able to put together a successful plan.” The Catholic Community Foundation of Minnesota (CCF) has never been better prepared to meet the challenges of the moment. Within days of the suspension of public Masses in March, CCF established onlyCOMMUNION IN THE MIDST OF CRISIS the Minnesota Catholic Relief Fund. Immediately, hundreds of generous people made extraordinary donations to support our local Catholic community. Shortly thereafter, CCF began deploying monies to parishes and schools in urgent need. This was all possible because CCF had the operational and relational infrastructure in place to act swiftly: the connections, the trust, the expertise, and the overwhelming support of our donors. CCF has proven it’s just as capable of serving the long-term needs of our Catholic community. together Through our Legacy Fund and a variety of endowments, individuals can support Catholic ministries in perpetuity, while parishes partner with CCF to safeguard their long-term financial stability.

  • JOURNEY Our Lady of Peace H E R
    THEJOURNEY Our Lady of Peace H E R OVOLUME 11 - 2020 E S PAGE 3 PAGE 5 PAGE 10 HOW THE LITTLE FREE HOSPICE ENDURED THE STORM This is the story of a public health crisis that converged with an economic crisis and how a little hospice in St. Paul withstood the crosswinds. This is the story of Our Lady of Peace Home in 2020. As increasingly dire information about the coronavirus emerged in early March, the staff of Our Lady of Peace rallied. It became clear that life was about to change in unimaginable ways. The pandemic cast Our Lady’s mission in a new, more urgent light: “Called by God, Our Lady of Peace gently comforts and cares for those most in need near the end of their lives, wherever they call home, regardless of means.” Soon that comfort and care would involve Facetiming quarantined relatives, managing a shortage of personal protective equipment and, in an unprecedented move, closing the hospice to outside visitors. The medical staff faced a formidable learning curve. “Staff rose to the challenge on infection control,” said Dr. Michael Pinchback, chief medical officer. “We all had the foundation of this knowledge prior to this, but this pandemic has made everyone employed here an expert.” From administrators to receptionists, the entire staff united in its effort to implement the best practices on infection control. It reinforced Our Lady’s longstanding emphasis on cleanliness and hygiene. The size of the hospice and the dedication of the staff allow patients to receive a level of care that standard hospitals simply cannot deliver, said longtime nurse Frezgi Hiskias.
