We appreciate our farmers
“The establishment of a college in Mayville marked the end of a dream and the beginning of a grand adventure. The vision of the advantages inherent in higher education had long abided in the thoughts and yearnings of the pioneers who settled eastern North Dakota. Far from being untutored sodbusters, many had tasted enough education to feel its allure, and more understood, however imperfectly, that their children could rise in life beyond the station of their parents through the power of knowledge.” This is the first paragraph in James Warren Neilson’s book, “The School of Personal Service: A History of Mayville State College.” Dr. Neilson, who passed away in 2015, was a long-time professor of history and economics at Mayville State. He was granted emeritus status upon his retirement in 1998.
