Nueta Hidatsa Sahnish College awarded AT&T Braiding Success Grant

New Town, ND -- Nueta Hidatsa Sahnish College (NHSC) was recently awarded an AT&T Braiding Success grant from the American Indian College Fund (AICF). The Braiding Success program was developed to assist tribal colleges and universities in connecting students with employers and promotes culturally responsive career planning. The program incorporates traditional knowledge and ways into coaching students for their future careers.

Deanna Rainbow, NHS College Student Success Retention Counselor, and Dr. Jen Janecek-Hartman, VP of Campus Services, coordinate the program. The grant is designed to offer an additional boost to dual-credit programs, which allow students to take courses that can be used for both high school and college credit.

“This program is designed to benefit dual-credit students by offering hands-on workshops, assistance with financial aid forms and academic/career advisement. The end result is a more seamless transfer from high school to NHS College,” said Rainbow.

NHSC enhances the quality of life and builds a strong, positive identity for the Mandan, Hidatsa and Arikara Nations or Three Affiliated Tribes. NHSC offers in-demand certificate programs and associate degrees as well as three bachelor’s degrees. The college offers high-quality cultural, academic and vocational education. NHSC provides encouragement and support to facilitate successful college careers.

Nueta Hidatsa Sahnish College Adds Golf to Fall 2021 Storm Athletics

New Town, ND -- Nueta Hidatsa Sahnish College (NHSC) Storm athletics has expanded their athletic program to include golf beginning Fall Semester 2021.

“Adding golf to our athletic program, we’re providing personal growth for students and an important tool for student recruitment,” said Kyle DeCoteau, NHSC athletic director. Hired in 2019, DeCoteau planned to add one sport per year during his first three years in the position. Men’s and women’s basketball were added in 2019, and men’s and women’s cross country were added in 2020.

“It makes sense to add golf right now because it requires less of an investment in facilities and other needs,” DeCoteau said. “In this area, we currently don’t have the facilities or equipment to add football or baseball, but you never know what the future may bring.”

NHSC announced its plans to add golf in mid-January. Within one day, Parshall athlete Journey Celo had committed to the women’s team. DeCoteau said many others have expressed an interest in the team, and he expects more will commit soon.

Storm golfers will play against teams from the NCAA, NAIA and NIAC, including the University of North Dakota, North Dakota State University, University of Mary, University of Jamestown, University of Minnesota and Dickinson State University.

NHSC enhances the quality of life and builds a strong, positive identity for the Mandan, Hidatsa and Arikara Nations or Three Affiliated Tribes. NHSC offers in-demand certificate programs and associate degrees as well as three bachelor’s degrees. The college offers high-quality cultural, academic and vocational education. NHSC provides encouragement and support to facilitate successful college careers.
