Rounds Appoints Randy Schaefer to Regents!

Holy cow! Madison and DSU keep a good voice on the Board of Regents! Governor Mike Rounds has appointed DSU alumnus and Madison insurance agent Randy Schaefer to fill the seat recently vacated by longtime Madison resident Dr. Richard Belatti.

Schaefer and I may disagree on other issues, but I know he's as committed to good public education in South Dakota as I am. All three of his kids are products of the Regental system (the youngest is still working on it!). As a DSU grad who stuck around town to make his career, Schaefer will speak up for what's good for the system as well as for DSU and Madison specifically.
