From the Hawk's Nest: Fantastic week for Dickinson State

Hi everyone, what another fantastic week for Dickinson State University. The Theodore Roosevelt Association s 107th Annual Meeting partnered with the Theodore Roosevelt Center s 21st Annual Symposium for an unforgettable event — the first-ever Theodore Roosevelt Convention (#TeddyCon)! Hosted at the brand-new Theodore Roosevelt Presidential Library in Medora, North Dakota on October 9-11, 2026, #TeddyCon captured the spirit of the theme, Looking Back, Moving Forward. We had more than 300 attendees— historians, educators, public officials, conservationists, and enthusiasts — who came together to celebrate the past and shape the future. I would venture to guess by a show of hands on Friday morning that more than 80% of the attendees were first time visitors to North Dakota. This is the type of partnership and Vision that Clay Jenkinson, DSU President Lee Vickers and others had in starting the Theodore Roosevelt Center here in Dickinson ND. We will continue
