WAHPETON — North Dakota State College of Science will focus on student success, community partnerships and continuous improvement as it works toward a goal of generating 80,000 annual credits by 2030, interim President Lisa Karch said during the college’s State of the College address Oct. 19. Karch outlined the college’s strategic priorities, enrollment goals and financial position while emphasizing the importance of collaboration among faculty, staff, students and community partners.

“The more time I spend traveling across our three locations and talking with all of you, students, community partners, the more convinced I become that our greatest strength is not found in a building, is not found in a program and it’s not found in the budget,” Karch said. “It is found in our people.”Karch said the college’s three strategic priorities are student success, community engagement and partnerships, and a commitment to continuous improvement. The priorities align with work already underway through the college’s strategic plan. Student success includes academic achievement, personal growth, student engagement, belonging and well-being, she said.

Free community college helping to shore up state university enrollment

State universities are seeing a surge in transfer students this fall, plus their first overall enrollment boost in more than a decade, according to new estimates from higher education officials that point to persistent struggles around degree completion. Across the state’s public higher education system, enrollment is up by 2.2 percent compared to last fall. Enrollment is up by 3.9 percent at community colleges — marking the fourth consecutive year of growth — and up by 2.2 percent at state universities, which is the first increase since 2013, according to data presented to the Board of Higher Education Tuesday. Enrollment is “level” for the University of Massachusetts system. Department of Higher Education staff zeroed in on transfer student trends, with their enrollment increasing by 16.6 percent at state universities and by 3.8 percent at UMass. “We are encouraged that students continue to find opportunities in Massachusetts’ public higher education system,” Interim Higher Education Commissioner José Luis Santos said in a statement. “But getting students through the door is only the beginning.

Enrollment in N.H.’s Medicaid expansion plan could drop 60 percent after work requirements take effect, analysis finds

The introduction of Medicaid work requirements set to take effect Jan. 1, 2027, could slash enrollment in New Hampshire’s Granite Advantage Program by as much as 60 percent, with somewhere between 23,000 and 29,000 adults losing their coverage by 2028, according to an analysis published Tuesday by the New Hampshire Fiscal Policy Institute. While new federal standards are being rolled out nationwide, New Hampshire has adopted its own stricter requirements for the jointly run program, including additional documentation and more frequent verification of eligibility. The paperwork burden alone could result in otherwise-eligible beneficiaries being dropped, according to Jessica Williams, a policy analyst who authored the institute’s study. “The reality is that people who are working or who qualify for an exemption could lose their health coverage under the new federal law because they aren’t able to navigate the new, complex and time-consuming reporting requirements,” Williams said in a statement, noting that New Hampshire still has important decisions to make about how to implement its rules.
