Profiles

VCSU helped prepare me as an educator, especially in these times, because I can use technology in a different way.

Valley City State shaped me into the person I am today. I think about who I was as a person when I came in as a shy, unsure freshman, to then leaving as a confident senior.

I graduated from high school in a class of 17 students, so I valued the small class sizes and tight-knit community that VCSU had to offer.

The pride of being a Viking is what has kept me here,VCSU has a lot of pride – not just on campus, but within the Valley City community as well. It is amazing to be part of something that has so much support on and beyond campus.

VCSU alumnus Mark Zinke ’16 spends his days teaching in the gym and coaching on the field. By night he is busy designing and selling gear to people who are proud to represent their North Dakota roots.
