Northland graduate Steven Reynolds talks about his college days at Northland with Ron West on Pioneer 90.1, and about his long-standing communication venture known as “The Raven.”

Published four times a year – with a circulation that reaches coast to coast – “The Raven” journal features local/regional artists and events, plus stories of early northwest Minnesota settlers and pioneers, passed on from generation to generation.

A grant from the Northwest Minnesota Arts Council was instrumental in the survival and growth of his publication.

Heidi_Hughes.mp3 Comedians Jack Black, Owen Wilson and Steve Martin star as bird watchers trying to break the record for the most species of birds seen in one year, in the new movie, “The Big Year.”

But why watch a movie about bird watching, when you can watch birds right in your own backyard?

Heidi Hughes, manager of the Audubon Center of the Red River Valley in Warren, will have a presentation on attracting birds to your backyard Monday evening at 6:30 the Thief River Falls Public Library.

NS_with_Dr._Temte_10-10-11.mp3Northland Community & Technical College President Dr. Anne Temte is featured on “ Northland Spotlight,” a weekly Pioneer 90.1 program focusing on Northland administration, faculty, students and staff from the Thief River Falls and East Grand Forks campuses.

“Northland Spotlight” can be heard every Monday at 3:05 PM.

Dr. Temte discusses her initial impressions of the new Minnesota State Colleges and Universities System (MNSCU) Chancellor, Dr. Stephen J. Rosenstone.  She also explains  potential MNSCU frameworks for the future, a new aviation grant received by Northland from the United States Department of Labor, a Regional Economic Development Summit held  May 10^th on the NCTC/Thief River Falls campus and her response to recent “Feedback” sessions, held to enhance the quality of services and programs provided by the college.
