New swings at St. Olaf. Thank you SGA and Facilities.

Thrilled to have been a judge for the AACC and NSF Community College Innovation Challenge. So glad we launched this when I was at NSF. www.aacc.nche.edu/2025/06/12/a...

St. Olaf Reunion!

Great to spend today at the Minnesota Capitol with Representatives Alex Falconer, Nathan Coulter, and Kristi Pursell. All three are proud Oles serving our state. Thanks for the great conversations about student financial aid and meeting with our students. #mpcc

What to do with a day off in Florida? Zip to Kyle’s and rent a bike, snag your good friend, and bike 42 miles on the East Central Florida Regional Rail Trail.

We had a blast celebrating St. Olaf’s 150th birthday. Ole is looking sharp in his tux.

Patience rewarded! My amaryllis is flowering at last.

So much fun delivering cookies to St. Olaf students during reading day with friends including Kevin our creative head of facilities and Bertha, our care and comfort dog. Thank you to our kind Rolvaag library team for the opportunity.

What happens when St. Olaf students studying Latin, Greek, and German stop by your home in December? Beautiful music of course. Thanks for the Latin, Greek, and German versions of holiday favorites. Professor Anne Groton, thank you for inspiring and leading our students on this musical adventure.

A great morning for our German Advent chapel service. Many thanks to our St. Olaf students studying German for the music and the service.

Norwegian Christmas chapel service at St Olaf brought wonder and joy to the start of Advent. The all Norwegian service with beautiful music is a credit to our wonderful students and their faculty. #stolaf

Today’s adventure with Emmy the pup took us to the west shore of the Cannon River Wilderness Park, across from the limestone cliffs and bridge near our home. The eagle’s nest is huge.
