Scott Olson Chancellor, Minnesota State
I believe we can do so much for Minnesota. I believe that education has the power to transform lives. And by transforming the lives of our students it transforms Minnesota into the best Minnesota that it can be — the North Star that we all aspire to achieve.
Our system represents that potential. Helping students fulfill their hopes and dreams — and as students fulfill their hopes and dreams — Minnesota prospers. I eagerly await working to building a better Minnesota by helping our students in the months to come.
