FROM DEANNA

BECAUSE YOU GIVE

“Legacy” is more than a word; it’s a promise.

At the UND Alumni Association & Foundation, we see that promise fulfilled every day through the generosity of alumni and friends who believe in the power of a UND degree.

Albert Einstein famously said, “Only a life lived for others is a life worthwhile.” That spirit defines the donors who invest in scholarships, faculty endowments, and campus learning spaces. One gift can change a life by opening doors for a student to pursue their dream of a UND degree or ensuring a professor can inspire hundreds each year. These acts of giving are not transactions; they are legacies that transform our campus and strengthen our community. Walk across UND’s campus and you’ll see the impact of philanthropy everywhere — in new buildings, innovative classrooms, and a record number of students. These are tangible reminders of those who came before us, modeling a love for UND that endures. And as students benefit from these gifts, they too learn what it means to give back, ensuring the cycle continues.

That spirit of generosity reached new heights in 2025, as we set a fundraising record of $119.9 million! I can’t begin to express how thankful I am for every one of our 11,294 donors who helped us reach that amazing total! You are all proof that our alumni and friends are deeply committed to shaping UND’s future. Every donor, every gift, every act of generosity writes the next chapter of UND’s story. Together, we continue to nourish this community and build upon this legacy.

Sincerely,

SHAPED BY TRADITION

Two UND families extend a legacy of leadership, learning, and loyalty across generations.

GUIDED BY COMPASSION

NDAD’s enduring commitment helps UND educators build futures grounded in resilience and possibility.

GUIDED BY HOMEGROWN CARE

The Peltiers empower UND students committed to family medicine in rural North Dakota.

UNIVERSITY OF NORTH DAKOTA

{legacies}

The people, traditions, and generosity shaping UND’s past, and future.

As we enter the final year of Forever UND: The Campaign for the University of North Dakota, the UND Alumni Association & Foundation is reflecting on the many legacies that have shaped our past and continue to define our future.

UND legacies are visible across campus. Buildings and spaces bearing the names of alumni and friends, such as Chester Fritz, Werner Nistler, Ken Hyslop, and former UND President Webster Merrifield stand as reminders of their generosity and leadership. Their impact reaches beyond bricks and mortar, creating opportunities rooted in values, vision, and a belief in UND’s promise.

Legacy at UND is also personal. Many students arrive on campus as part of enduring family traditions. UND is home to second-, third-, and even fourth-generation students who, like those before them, walk the same halls and chilly sidewalks, learn in familiar classrooms, and sometimes even study under the same professors. Their stories reflect a shared belief in the power of education and in the lasting influence of a UND experience.

This edition of the UND Alumni Magazine celebrates legacy in all its forms. It honors those who have built a lifelong tradition of giving, as well as those just beginning their philanthropic journey.

ETERNAL FLAME SOCIETY

At UND, a legacy is a living thread that links generations who carry the UND spirit forward. We honor that connection with a distinctive cord worn at commencement. Throughout this issue, the legacy cord illustration marks stories shaped by tradition, strengthened by family, and tied to UND’s enduring sense of continuity.

To recognize this commitment, the UND Alumni Association & Foundation established the Eternal Flame Society, which honors supporters within six Giving Circles:

Adelphi Circle: $5 million+

William Budge Circle: $1 million - $4,999,999

Dr. Cora Smith Circle: $500,000 - $999,999

Thomas Clifford Circle: $100,000 - $499,999

President’s Circle: $10,000 - $99,999

1889 Legacy Society: Documented planned gifts

The University is strengthened by the generosity of alumni and friends at every level; their gifts support scholarships, empower faculty, enhance campus, and advance programs that mark the culmination of Forever UND. Together, these commitments ensure UND’s legacy continues to grow for generations to come.

The following stories highlight two UND families whose shared values continue to shape the next generation.

UND: A FAMILY AFFAIR

LEAVING THE WOODPILE HIGHER

From the rink to the State Capitol, the Strinden family has passed down leadership, service, and a simple rule: leave the woodpile higher.

UND hockey fans have heard the name Ben Strinden a lot this season. Heading into the holiday break, the senior was the team’s leading scorer and was named the National Collegiate Hockey Conference’s Forward of the Month in November.

For Ben, that success is rooted in a family work ethic and servantminded approach shaped by his grandfather, Earl Strinden, ’58, former executive vice president of the UND Alumni Association, CEO of the UND Foundation, and long-time majority leader of the North Dakota House of Representatives.

“My grandpa would say that he wanted to leave the woodpile a little higher. He passed that down to all of us, no matter what we’re doing — school, hockey, work, or just being a good person,” Ben said.

“Earl is known for many ‘Earlisms,’ and that’s one of the most famous,” said Earl’s daughter-in-law, North Dakota Lt. Gov. Michelle (Strecker) Strinden, ’91. “They’re full of wisdom — the principles he wanted to instill in his children and grandchildren.

“‘Leave the woodpile higher’ speaks to public service and servant leadership,” Michelle continued. “Earl lived that — both as leader of the University of North Dakota alumni office and during his 13 years as Majority Leader in the North Dakota House. He worked across differences, valued every perspective, and led with respect and an unmatched work ethic.”

The idea was about investing in people, said Jacob Strinden, ’22, a UND School of Law graduate and the eldest son of Michelle and Tom Strinden, ’88. “A large part of how Grandpa saw his role to leave the woodpile higher was in training the next generations of people and building future leaders.”

A BITTERSWEET SEASON

This hockey season carries extra weight for the Strinden family. In July, their father, Tom, an ophthalmologist, passed away after a 17-month battle with cancer.

“We all agree Ben wouldn’t be in this position without his dad,” Michelle said. “Tom poured himself into Ben’s hockey career and did the same for all of our kids.”

The family includes another son, Joseph, and a daughter, Sarah. Neither attend UND, but were equally shaped by their family’s lessons.

“Seeing Ben succeed — especially during his breakout year — would have been Tom’s dream,” Michelle said. “We know he’s watching, but we wish he were here.”

Earl and his wife, Jan, had five children, and the Strindens stay closely connected. A family group text with nearly 40 members — many of whom are UND graduates — keeps track of Ben’s hockey success.

“It was as much a dream of Earl and Jan’s as it was Tom’s and mine,” Michelle said. “Seeing it unfold has been a joy.”

“(My grandparents’) encouragement is something that’s always been there, and I got all the support in the world to go pursue a dream.”

A FAMILY SHAPED BY SERVICE

In late 2024, Michelle was sworn in as North Dakota’s lieutenant governor, continuing a family tradition of public service. She was elected to the North Dakota House of Representatives in 2019 and has a background in education, behavioral health, and economic development.

As she travels the state, Michelle sees UND’s impact firsthand — from advancing healthcare through its medical and nursing programs to driving growth in aerospace and unmanned aircraft systems.

That same commitment to service shows up in Jacob’s path. He valued the real-world experience offered at the UND School of Law. “There’s a strong push to get students into the workforce early through internships and volunteer opportunities,” he said.

After two years with a Fargo law firm, he now works as an attorney for Edgewood REIT, a company cofounded by his uncle, Jon Strinden, ’79, ’82.

Jacob credits his family for teaching him to lead with humility, adding that he sees that same approach in his younger brother on the ice. “Ben’s an encourager,” he said.

“I remember how nervous I felt as a freshman,” Ben said.

“As a senior, I make a point to welcome guys right away and make them feel like they can be themselves and have fun. I try to lift people up.”

It’s a trait that the Strindens have passed down through generations, showing up in locker rooms, classrooms, and communities — all leaving the woodpile a little higher.

Multiple generations of the Strinden family gathered in 2017 to celebrate the naming of Strinden Road, dedicated to Earl and Jan Strinden.

UND: A FAMILY AFFAIR

GROUNDED IN EDUCATION

From the runway to the classroom, one UND family carries forward a belief in education, discipline, and paying it forward.

When Aiden Potter, ’25, stepped onto the stage at the University of North Dakota last spring, he joined his family’s UND legacy as its youngest member.

A graduate of UND’s John D. Odegard School of Aerospace Sciences, Aiden is now building hours as a certified flight instructor before starting a job with a regional airline. He is also the great-grandson of Frank “Zaz” Zazula, UND football and track coach from 1949-82. Zaz emphasized the importance of education within his family.

“Zaz told us education was the one thing no one could take from you,” said his daughter and Aiden’s grandmother, Polly (Zazula) Aaser, ’75. “Your house can burn, you can be bankrupt, you can lose everything — but your education stays with you.”

Polly grew up watching her father’s deep connection to the University and its students.

“It really felt like a family,” she said. “Zaz’s athletes would come to our house for holiday dinners if they couldn’t make it home. He’d give them advice about school and make sure they had a warm meal.”

“Zaz told us education was the one thing no one could take from you.”
POLLY (ZAZULA) AASER, ’75

AVIATION TAKES HOLD

Aiden’s journey is similar to that of his grandfather and Polly’s husband, Don Aaser, ’71, who learned to fly at UND.

After graduating, Don entered the Air Force, where the discipline and cold-weather flight experience he gained in Grand Forks helped him earn a coveted spot as a flight instructor and later as a fighter pilot. While Don served, Polly taught school in Del Rio, Texas. The family moved often before eventually settling in Minnesota, where Polly spent 30 years as coordinator of special education at Osseo Senior High School. Don went on to own a medical software company.

UND FAMILY GROWS

The Aasers’ daughters both chose UND, beginning with Katie (Aaser) Potter, ’97. “Katie got information when we were on campus for a party for Zaz, and she decided to go to UND,” Polly said. “Then our daughter Elizabeth (Aaser, ’00) followed. We really bleed green.”

“Our house was UND everything,” Katie added.

When Polly dropped her daughters off at college, Zaz insisted on coming too. “My dad stayed for a week,” Polly said, “just in case they needed anything.”

While at UND, Katie met Glenn Potter, ’98. Glenn had moved to Grand Forks as a child; his father, Tom Potter, was a UND professor of finance for 22 years.

While Katie and Glenn have many fond memories of Greek life and UND hockey, the 1997 flood was the defining moment of their college years. “It wasn’t that it was a bad experience,” Glenn said, “It was just surreal. Katie was sandbagging the dike over Lincoln Park until she was forced to leave.”

The aftermath stayed with them. “The University and the city really came together to rebuild,” Katie said.

LEGACY in action

The values of the Strinden and Zazula families are extended to future generations through these endowments.

Dr. Thomas I. Strinden Memorial Scholarship Endowment Supports medical students interested in pursuing ophthalmology. Preference may be given to students from Barnes, Grand Forks, or Cass counties in North Dakota.

AIDEN’S TURN

For Katie and Glenn’s son Aiden, UND wasn’t initially a consideration. That changed when his grandfather Don suggested aviation as a career path.

“I told him (being a commercial pilot) would lead to a great lifestyle. I also told him the University of North Dakota aviation program was the best in the country and had a direct recruiting line to all the airlines.”

A discovery flight, which Aiden described as “awesome,” sealed the deal.

For the family, Aiden’s experience reflects what UND has offered across generations.

“It’s a great education,” said Katie. “The Greek system made campus feel like a community — and I see that same closeness for Aiden in the aviation program.” Don agreed.

“We’ve lived in Minnesota, North Dakota, Texas, Nebraska. I trained in Florida and New Mexico,” he said.

Class of 1988 Scholarship Endowment

Provides scholarships for students enrolled within the UND School of Medicine & Health Sciences.

“We’ve seen a lot of institutions. For the time you spend there and the money you invest, I don’t think you can get a better bang for the buck than UND.”

Now building flight hours and preparing for his next step, Aiden sees the value of the UND relationships firsthand. “A friend from UND works for my future employer,” he said. “He helped me prepare for the interview.”

Aiden represents the most recent chapter in a long-running UND family story shaped by Frank “Zaz” Zazula and grounded in a belief that education opens doors and lifts others along the way. ///

“IT’S ABOUT EMPOWERING FUTURE GENERATIONS, FOSTERING INNOVATION, AND STRENGTHENING COMMUNITIES, JUST AS UND HAS DONE FOR MORE THAN 140 YEARS.”
WERNER NISTLER, ’68

THE NISTLER WAY

Rooted in service and driven by purpose, the Nistlers help propel UND into its next era.

From building a nationally respected senior living company to championing UND’s future, Werner, ’68, and Colleen Nistler live and lead by a clear set of values.

As chairs of Forever UND: The Campaign for the University of North Dakota, they bring the same principles that guided Touchmark, the company Werner founded 45 years ago: Excellence, Teamwork, Hospitality, Integrity, and Compassion — forming the acronym ETHIC.

Werner sees those same ETHIC values reflected in UND alumni. “We’re all cut from the same cloth,” he said.

“It’s very inspirational to be around people who always have your back and want to do good for the University, our nation, and the world.”

They believe UND’s momentum has never been stronger and credit President Andy Armacost for helping drive it forward. “He’s really rallying all the students and employees,” Werner said.

Under the Nistlers’ leadership, the Forever UND Campaign surpassed its original $500 million goal and was extended to $625 million by the end of 2026. But for Werner and Colleen, the campaign is about more numbers. “It’s about empowering future generations, fostering innovation, and strengthening communities, just as UND has done for more than 140 years,” Werner said.

GIVING BACK, LEADING FORWARD

Werner has long believed there are two types of people: givers and takers. “The givers always go the extra mile to make life better for our residents,” he said.

“We’re determined to keep service and excellence at the top of our minds. It’s just a way of life.”

That philosophy also guides their business and philanthropy. The Nistlers supplied the lead gift for the Nistler College of Business & Public Administration, completed in 2022. The building’s name, Werner said, is a tribute to the entire Nistler family. “I would hope that when people walk through, they will recognize that anybody can do what we’re doing. It takes determination and hard work, but you can make something happen.”

Werner and Colleen continue to lead by example. When asked to chair the Forever UND campaign, they didn’t hesitate. They accepted the role of chair out of what Werner calls a “love for the University and the opportunity to be around like-minded people.”

“We were very honored to be asked, and we gladly accepted.”

“A COLLEGE EDUCATION IS ABOUT MORE THAN THE DEGREE. IT’S ABOUT THE EXPERIENCE AND THE LESSONS YOU LEARN ALONG THE WAY.”
KIM VIGEN, ’88

ROOTED IN LOVE & LOYALTY

For Jeff and Kim Vigen, UND is more than their alma mater; it’s the foundation of their family, careers, and enduring generosity.

Jeff, ’86, and Kim, ’88, Vigen met while participating in Greek Life at UND.

Jeff was a member of Kappa Sigma as a civil engineering major, while Kim was in Kappa Alpha Theta and studying business administration. Their bond began at a sorority dance and has continued to strengthen as they graduated and built a foundation of success together.

Jeff took over his family’s construction business, Vigen Construction, Inc., after many years of doing nearly every job imaginable under his father, uncle, and brother. The business has grown to become a respected leader in agricultural construction, strengthened by a loyal team of dedicated employees and the shared commitment of the Vigen family. In every stage of their lives, Kim has devoted herself to her family, supporting Jeff in his work and raising their sons as a stay-at-home mother. Both of their sons followed in their parents’ footsteps at UND and now contribute to the family business— Andrew as a project manager with a civil engineering degree, and Jared as the comptroller with an accounting degree.

Their success has allowed Jeff and Kim to give back to UND, and their philanthropy spans decades while touching many areas of campus. From scholarship and priority needs support in the College of Engineering & Mines to named spaces in Upson Hall and the Nistler College of Business & Public Administration, their impact is visible and lasting. They have also been members of the Champions Club since 1997 while supporting several UND Athletics programs along the way.

Jeff and Kim credit UND for shaping their success. “Every instructor taught you something valuable, not only about your education, but also about life,” Jeff said.

“A college education is about more than the degree. It’s about the experience and the lessons you learn along the way,” Kim added. Their memories of UND come back to them when they receive thank-you notes from scholarship recipients.

“We want to help out however we can, and it’s always nice to hear from the students we have supported,” Jeff said. “With us and our kids being UND graduates, there’s no doubt where our passion lies.”

“WE’VE REACHED A POINT WHERE IT’S FUN TO GIVE BACK TO DIFFERENT INSTITUTIONS, AND TO UND.”
GEORGE EIDSNESS, ’73

RIDING FORWARD

George Eidsness blends business savvy, agriculture, and Western spirit.

Long before George Eidsness, ’73, was honored as the 2026 Citizen of the West, he was a kid on a North Dakota farm learning lessons that would shape the business owner and community leader he would become.

“I’m very humbled,” George said of the annual award that recognizes individuals who embody the spirit and ideals of the American West. “I would have never dreamt that I’d get that award and be on the same stage as former U.S. senators, governors, and other leaders.”

George’s education began on the family farm outside Brocket, North Dakota, where he learned to run and repair equipment and understand animals and agriculture. At UND, those practical skills met structure.

“I learned how to think and figure things out. I learned how to run a financially sound business; I learned percentages, operational costs, and cost projections.”

After graduating, George joined Fargo-based W.W. Wallwork. In 1990, he bought Transwest in Brighton, Colorado, then an operation with two buildings and fewer than 90 employees. Over the next three decades, Transwest expanded into a full-service vehicle retailer and fleetservices company with more than 25 locations and 1,400 employees.

Barbara, his wife of 55 years, is an integral part of the business. “She says she’s been 100% supportive of all the things that I’ve done that have worked,” he said with a smile.

As Transwest grew, so did George and Barbara’s commitment to investing in others — particularly the next generation.

The couple established the George and Barbara Eidsness Scholarship Endowment at UND’s Nistler College of Business & Public Administration.

“It’s because of my love for North Dakota and UND,” George said. “It’s also about giving back to the school that helped me.”

George appreciates hearing from students who receive the scholarship.

“I enjoy getting their letters. They’re striving to enter the business world and make achievements of their own.”

As part of George’s recognition as the Citizen of the West, the National Western Scholarship Trust awarded two $5,000 scholarships to University of North Dakota students in his honor.

In 2023, George was inducted into the U.S. Team Penning Association Hall of Fame.

HEART FOR HUMANITIES

Former UND instructor Sam Johnson brings global experience and expands the arts in the classroom.

Though much of his schooling took place in various states, Sam Johnson, ’73, ’90, ’93, never lost his hometown connection to Grand Forks or its university. As a high school junior in Maryland, he applied for UND’s early-entry program for 11thgraders known as the “Nifty Gifty’s.”

Drawn by the campus’s academic atmosphere, he opted to stay at UND to begin his college career early. He earned his first degree in just two years, becoming UND’s youngest graduate teaching assistant. Sam credits extracurriculars offered through the College of Arts & Sciences for broadening his worldview and lifelong commitment to the arts and humanities.

“I remember the Gamalan dancers from the Far East, speakers, and music groups different cultural experiences. This was a tremendous part of my learning and influences my support of these kinds of activities now.”

As a UND English instructor in the early 2000s, Sam did the same for his students, hosting potlucks during UND’s Writer’s Conference to allow students to connect with acclaimed authors.

Sam coordinated experiences like this for his students at Lake Region State College and Devils Lake Public Schools as well, leading field trips to destinations outside of the state. He expanded technology and storytelling resources available to his students by launching North Dakota’s first high-speed internet lab for digital journalism and creating “The Global Classroom,” a pioneering telecommunications program.

His innovation earned state and national recognition. In 1997, Sam received the Milken Foundation’s Outstanding National Educator Award. He invested the funds and used the payouts to establish several endowments at UND, supporting aspiring English and music teachers.

Sam Johnson with his mother and siblings on graduation day, 1973. Sam’s brother, Peter, ’81, ’82, is UND’s Director of Government & Public Relations.
“I BELIEVE THE ARTS AND HUMANITIES TEACH US WHAT IT MEANS TO BE HUMAN; THEY OFFER ACADEMIC, INTELLECTUAL, AND EMPATHETIC VALUE. WHEN THOSE ARE ABSENT, YOUNG PEOPLE MISS OUT ON ESSENTIAL EXPERIENCES.”
SAM JOHNSON, ’73, ’90, ’93

In the fall of 2025, he established another endowment to benefit music therapists after witnessing the transformative impact of music therapy on his mother’s dementia.

Sam’s giving reflects a family legacy of cultural appreciation and educational opportunity inspired by his parents, George “Bob” Johnson and Marjorie Dorsher.

The couple modeled service and a love of culture — from concert tickets to museum memberships — wherever they lived.

“I believe the arts and humanities teach us what it means to be human,” Sam says. “They offer academic, intellectual, and empathetic value. When those are absent, young people miss out on essential experiences.”

ROOTED IN GRATITUDE

Bjella siblings honor their parents’ UND connection with Law School endowment.

Arley Bjella, ’41, HON ’89, was recognized for his business success and military service, but it was generosity that left the strongest impression on his children.

“He was a good teacher,” said his son, Brian Bjella, ’75, ’79. “A few years ago, Bryn (Bjella Parchman, ..’73), Lance, and I decided to honor our parents and thought UND would be the best place to do it.”

Both parents were UND grads. Beverly (Heen) Bjella, ’42, grew up in Grand Forks, Arley in Epping. “Their connections to UND were really strong, and we wanted to do something to say ‘thank you’ to the University.”

“GETTING INVOLVED AND SHARING YOUR TIME AND RESOURCES IS A WAY TO SAY, ‘I VALUE THIS COMMUNITY. I VALUE THE STATE. I WANT TO DO A LITTLE BIT TO MAKE IT BETTER.’”
BRIAN BJELLA, ’75, ’79

The Bjella family established the Arley R. Bjella Scholarship Endowment at the UND School of Law, supporting students from Williams County or with a military background — a nod to their father’s North Dakota roots and World War II service. The law school’s faculty conference room also bears Arley’s name.

LIKE FATHER, LIKE SON

After earning his law degree, Arley served in World War II. He returned home, married Beverly, and began practicing law in Williston, where he helped shape North Dakota’s oil and gas laws. In 1970, he became president and CEO of Lutheran Brotherhood Insurance Company in Minneapolis. In both cities, Arley was involved in civic and charitable work. UND recognized him with the Sioux Award for Distinguished Achievement & Leadership in 1974.

“Earl Strinden asked him to chair the UND Centennial Fund Drive,” Brian said. “He was always involved in the Chamber of Commerce, United Way, wherever there was a need.”

Like his father, Brian earned a law degree from UND, where he met his wife, Karen (Sylvester), ’77. After serving as assistant attorney general for the State Land Department (now the Department of Trust Lands), he joined the Bismarck law firm now known as Crowley Fleck in 1980.

“I've been working in energy law almost exclusively ever since,” he said. Brian served on the Lignite Energy Council Board for 20 years. He was active in civic organizations — Chamber of Commerce, United Way, and YMCA — and continues to serve on the Tom and Frances Leach Foundation Board.

In 2024, Brian was named an Honorary Trustee of the Foundation for Natural Resources and Energy Law. Now semi-retired and living in Bozeman, he remains proud of his father’s legacy — and of the scholarship that continues it at UND Law.

EXTENDING THE LEGACY

NDAD empowers UND’s future special education teachers.

Balancing lesson plans, graduate coursework, and parenting two sons with autism, Anna Bellon has built her life around possibility rather than limits. With support from the North Dakota Association for the Disabled (NDAD), she’s pursuing her master’s degree in special education at UND — showing her children, and her students, that perseverance can open doors at any age.

Anna has been awarded the NDAD Gibbens Memorial Scholarship twice.

As an early childhood special education teacher in Grand Forks, she says the assistance has been a lifeline. “The fact that people look out for other people gives me hope,” she said. “It’s important for me to show my children that you can accomplish anything at any age, regardless of circumstances.”

Her children see her studying, and they encourage her. Her oldest has even started talking about college — a remarkable shift from just a year ago.

“The fact that people look out for other people gives me hope.”

Anna Bellon is a role model for her sons.

A MISSION THAT BEGAN WITH ONE FAMILY

NDAD traces its roots to 1967, when Ron Gibbens, ’64, a 20-year UND employee, and his wife, Faye (Lysne), ’73, a teacher, formed a support group for parents after their son Mike was born with cerebral palsy. In 1975, the small group became NDAD, a nonprofit dedicated to helping people with disabilities and health challenges.

Fifty years later, NDAD operates in six cities across the state, supporting those who often do not qualify for other services. Recently, the organization began supporting and recognizing educators like Anna who embody the Gibbens’ philosophy.

MEETING NEEDS ACROSS THE STATE

Grounded in its motto, “Helping others to help themselves,” NDAD provides financial assistance for medical travel, prescriptions, paratransit support, adaptive recreation, and autism services. Grants have funded accessible playgrounds, classroom equipment, and equine therapy programs.

“The staff all work toward the same goal,” said Chief Program Officer Leslie (Anderson) Stastny, ’92, who has been with NDAD for 29 years. “We really just want to help. We see people from all walks of life, from those with very low income to others who may be doing fine financially but have had something happen and suddenly need support.”

NDAD Marketing Director DeAnn Burckhard, ’03, agreed. “We all truly care about making sure people with health challenges receive what they need to live more easily. If we can’t help directly, we’ll find someone who can.”

NDAD continues to expand. “The further west in the state you go, the more rural it becomes and harder it is to access services,” DeAnn said, adding that the group recently opened an office in Dickinson. “The types of services we provide will ebb and flow, but the reasons stay the same: Make sure people have access to what they need so they can live better lives.”

LOOKING FORWARD

In the 1980s, NDAD had to innovate to stay afloat, introducing charitable gaming as a funding source. By 1985, bingo halls were operating in Minot, Grand Forks, Fargo, and Williston. Gaming revenue remains a key source of support today.

“A few years ago, we started talking about doing an endowment,” Leslie said. “Because of Ron’s connection to UND and Faye’s teaching background, we decided to go through the special education department.”

They established the NDAD Gibbens Memorial Scholarship Endowment to provide financial support for UND students studying special education, with priority for those from North Dakota or planning to work in the state.

Shauna Fetch, ’25, a special education teacher in the New Rockford-Sheyenne (N.D.) School District, was an early scholarship recipient. “I want to help students with mental disabilities to learn the best way they can. I want to prepare them for the real world. Even those students with very mild disabilities need someone to believe in them. That is my goal — to make each student feel important and valued.”

“I want to help students with mental disabilities to learn the best way they can. I want to prepare them for the real world.”
SHAUNA FETCH, ’25 SPECIAL EDUCATION TEACHER

IMPACT IN ACTION

Twice a year, the NDAD Gibbens Memorial Grant provides funds to organizations working to improve health, education, and access for at-risk populations. UND has benefited.

One recent recipient, the UND School of Medicine & Health Sciences in collaboration with students from the UND College of Education & Human Development, hosted a summer sports camp for children ages 8-12 with developmental disabilities and their peers. The goal is to improve participants’ gross motor skills through physical activity education, enhance social-emotional learning and well-being by making meaningful connections, and promote physical fitness and health by engaging in sports and sportrelated activities.

Through another NDAD Gibbens Memorial Grant, UND’s Communication Sciences and Disorders Department purchased advanced screening equipment to help identify potential hearing concerns. Early detection can improve speech and language development, social interaction, and academic success. The instrument is now used during preschool hearing screenings throughout the Grand Forks area.

CELEBRATING TEACHERS

This fall, NDAD celebrated North Dakota teachers at UND athletic events and invited communities statewide to nominate their heroes in education.

“I felt proud to be recognized as an educator during a large event at my alma mater,” said Bonnie (Helt) Howatt, ’86, a special education teacher for 40 years, the last 13 with the Life Centered Career Education program at Devils Lake High School.

Bonnie believes the recognition is timely. “Over 40 years of teaching, I feel the respect for education has greatly declined,” she said. “Finding positive ways to promote teaching will help people see the joys, rewards, and accomplishments the profession offers.”

NDAD aims to be part of that encouragement.

“Finding positive ways to promote teaching will help people see the joys, rewards, and accomplishments the profession offers.”
BONNIE (HELT) HOWATT, ’86 SPECIAL EDUCATION TEACHER

“We’re proud to sponsor these events that bring our community together and shine a light on teachers,” DeAnn said. Since joining NDAD, her goal has been to help people more easily connect with the organization’s resources. NDAD’s marketing, she explained, isn’t “completely traditional.” She’s working to expand the nonprofit’s digital presence and build relationships that lead to referrals.

Leslie and many other long-tenured NDAD employees are simply proud to be part of the work. “I don't know of another organization that makes an impact like NDAD,” Leslie said.

“To see someone no longer have to choose between groceries and prescriptions — and know that’s because of NDAD — is incredible.”

Leslie’s sentiment echoes what Anna sees in her classroom and in her own life: NDAD looks out for people. And that gives people hope.

ROOTED IN RURAL CARE

The Peltiers’ endowment strengthens UND’s mission to grow family physicians close to home.

Joe and Norma Peltier believed deeply in recognizing the dignity of every person and giving back to the rural communities where they lived, worked, and raised their family.

“Dad always said, ‘If you want to get things done, don’t care about who gets the credit,’” recalled his daughter, Dr. Suzette Peltier, ’85.

The couple met as standout basketball players at rival high schools, dated in college — Joe at NDSU and Norma at Moorhead State University — and married in 1952. After Joe’s service in the U.S. Army and their work as educators in central North Dakota, they moved to his hometown to expand the family agribusiness, Arthur Companies.

Joe welcomed company guests from around the world into their home, and Norma fed them, showing off her farm-earned “milk muscles” and inviting each to mark their home country on the kitchen’s world map, piquing her children’s curiosity beyond North Dakota.

“If you want to get things done, don’t care about who gets the credit.”
JOE PELTIER
Dr Suzette Peltier, ’85
’22

In 1979, Joe was elected to the North Dakota House of Representatives and was a part of the decision to bring all four years of UND’s School of Medicine & Health Sciences (SMHS) medical training in-state, transitioning thirdyear clinical rotations from Minnesota to North Dakota. The change would have longterm effects on recruitment and retention efforts, as well as on the Peltier family.

Suzette was among the first class to complete all four years of medical school in North Dakota. She went on to practice obstetrics and gynecology for over three decades in Wisconsin, where she saw firsthand the vital role of family physicians. Her daughter, Signe Thorpe, ’22, continued the legacy and is a pediatric hematology, oncology, and bone marrow transplant fellow at the Children’s Hospital of Wisconsin.

“To cover insurance, tuition and fees, and daycare, we’ve had to take out additional loans. Having this scholarship hugely decreases our financial burden.”
FREDDIE-LEIGH GRIFFIN

Though deeply invested in NDSU, Joe and Norma’s commitment to education extended far beyond any rivalry. In 1999, they established an endowment providing what is now one of the largest scholarship funds for medical students intending to practice rural medicine in North Dakota.

Freddie-Leigh Griffin, a thirdyear medical student pursuing rural medicine, received the Peltier Scholarship at a critical time as a young mother.

“We have a 16-month-old and daycare cost is astronomical,” Freddie-Leigh said. “To cover insurance, tuition and fees, and daycare, we’ve had to take out additional loans. Having this scholarship hugely decreases our financial burden.”

Inspired by her experience, she’s advocating at the state level for improvements to North Dakota’s Child Care Assistance Program. She and her husband plan to one day create their own endowment.

Freddie-Leigh Griffin and her husband, Jordan.

“Our hope is to give back, to decrease the barriers for young families, especially women and mothers, going into medical school,” she said.

‘TRAIN OUR OWN AND GROW AT HOME’

After moving to Fargo, the Peltiers became involved in what is now Sanford Health, with Joe serving on its board and Norma logging more than 3,000 volunteer hours over 45 years. Together, they helped establish Peltier Lodge to support cancer patients.

Through her own medical journey battling leukemia as a child, Signe benefited from her grandparents’ generosity beyond being spoiled with all her favorite foods at every visit.

“In medicine, my grandma taught me there’s always more than one way to help. We definitely need doctors, but also volunteers to provide meals, rides to appointments, and shelter closer to the hospital,” Signe said. “Norma did these things. I learned hospitality from her and how to make the patient experience more comfortable.”

The Peltiers’ lifelong commitment to education and improving the future for all North Dakotans is reflected in the legacy they have left for future physicians.

When Norma passed in 2024, their estate gift to UND SMHS took effect. Intended to support students entering family medicine in rural practices, the Peltier siblings Keith, Jeff, Suzette, and BettyJo — worked with SMHS Dean Dr. Marjorie Jenkins to determine how the gift could have the greatest impact.

Part of the endowment will support UND’s new Primary Care Accelerated Track (PCAT), launching in 2028, which will allow rural-bound medical students to complete their training in three years. Today, nearly half (47% in 2025) of SMHS’s medical doctor graduates are choosing primary care specialties, including family medicine.

Norma Peltier, Signe Thorpe, and Dr. Josh Wynne, former dean and current professor at the UND School of Medicine & Health Sciences
“We’re

thrilled because their gift will be working to get family practitioners trained in North Dakota, staying in North Dakota, and that’s exactly what our parents would want.”

DR. SUZETTE PELTIER, ’85

Dr. David Schmitz, Chair of Family & Community Medicine, emphasized the significance of the Peltiers’ gift for future practitioners.

“Family physicians meet patients’ most immediate needs, from delivering babies to responding to trauma, making them essential to rural healthcare,” he said. “The Peltiers’ generosity is helping us ‘train our own and grow at home,’ a key element in building North Dakota’s healthcare workforce.”

IN THEIR HONOR

On August 15, 2025, SMHS dedicated the Joe & Norma Peltier East Atrium. Though Joe and Norma considered credit unnecessary, their names are displayed in the space to honor the couple’s humility, work ethic, and enduring contribution.

Suzette represented her siblings at the dedication, saying, “We’re thrilled because their gift will be working to get family practitioners trained in North Dakota, staying in North Dakota, and that’s exactly what our parents would want.” ///

Estate, planned, or deferred giving

“A TURNING POINT FOR US TO GIVE WAS WHEN WE FELT THAT WE’VE HAD THE LIFE WE’VE ALWAYS WANTED BECAUSE OF OUR EDUCATIONS.”
SHIRLEY JOHNSON

IT’S THE

SIMPLE THINGS

A lasting legacy from Bruce and Shirley Johnson will help future UND law students find their way.

“I think it’s very tough now,” said Bruce Johnson, ’73, reflecting on the challenges law students face today.

“I don’t think very many people can do it without a little help, and we want to help students get a good education at UND.”

Bruce and his wife, Shirley, recently documented a portion of their estate to scholarships at the UND School of Law — a gift rooted in gratitude for the opportunities their education provided.

Married for 57 years, the Johnsons credit the GI Bill and Shirley’s job at Twamley Hall for helping them afford law school and build a life together.

“We were lucky enough to have the GI Bill, so we were able to afford law school,” Bruce said, recalling the help he received.

EDUCATION = OPPORTUNITY

Originally a member of the UND Law Class of 1970, Bruce joined the Army after his first year of law school and served in the 101st Airborne Division at Camp Eagle during the Vietnam War.

During that time, Shirley pursued her passion as a teacher. She stepped away from teaching when Bruce returned and got a job in Twamley Hall.

“I don’t remember what I got from the GI Bill, but between that and Shirley’s job, we had a nice, furnished apartment on campus with cable TV and we were able to pay for law school,” Bruce said.

“And it got us a couple of nice chicken dinners too,” Shirley laughed.

SERVING OTHERS

“A turning point for us to give was when we felt that we’ve had the life we’ve always wanted because of our educations,” Shirley said.

“Our educations gave us the opportunity to earn money,” Bruce added. “Giving is inspirational to others. It’s impactful, it’s an incredible legacy to create and leave behind, knowing you’ve inspired others for generations to come.”

As the Johnsons see it, it’s the simple idea of wanting to help and serve others that makes the biggest difference and it’s often ordinary people with simple ideas who change the world.

In retirement, Bruce and Shirley have explored three continents and more than 20 countries, often by cruise ship. They split their time between Green Valley, Arizona, and Fargo, where Bruce practiced law for 42 years.

They were surprised that anyone would want to tell their story. “We’re just two ordinary people,” Bruce said.

But their gift — rooted in gratitude, shaped by service, and inspired by simplicity — will help future students build lives of their own.

Because sometimes, it’s the simple things that leave the most lasting impact.
