✨ Student Spotlight ✨

And we're back with our 2026-27 spotlights, first highlighting Caleb Olson! Caleb recently earned his undergrad degree in Kinesiology and decided to stay in the program to earn his master's. "A big reason for that was the relationships I built with professors like Dr. John Fitzgerald, Dr. Sandra Moritz, and Dr. Mark Rerick. They’ve had a huge impact on my experience.... I also really value how flexible the program is, allowing me to tailor my coursework to my specific interests and career goals."

Out of the classroom, Caleb plays on the football team and is on the CEHD Student Council, Intercollegiate Athletics Committee (IAC), Student-Athlete Advisory Committee (SAAC), and Fellowship of Christian Athletes (FCA). He appreciates being able to represent others in a variety of roles. As a Student Council member, he wants CEHD students to know "we're here for them". He's looking forward to building on what Student Council started last year and making new connections.

"I’m really grateful for my experience at UND and within the Kinesiology program. It’s been a place where I’ve been able to grow both academically and personally, while also pursuing athletics at a high level."

Are you excited for the new academic year? We are!

Yesterday, CEHD welcomed incoming freshmen and transfer students with an orientation featuring Dean Shelbie Witte, Associate Dean of Student Success Jared Schlenker, department chairs, faculty, advisors and more. Afterward, our new on-campus students got to know their CEHD home base with a scavenger hunt through the building!

To all of our CEHD students: Whether you take classes online or on campus, and whether this is your first semester, your last or somewhere in the middle, we’re glad you’re here.

Here’s to a happy, fulfilling and successful fall semester!

Question?

It’s one of the simplest lines in Project Hail Mary. It was also the challenge Dean Shelbie Witte gave CEHD leadership today as we came together for our Next Chapter.

Ask better questions. Challenge what we think we know. Trust the people around the table. And never lose sight of who all this work is for.

Because better leadership should mean better experiences for our students, stronger support for our people, and a college that makes a bigger difference beyond its walls.

That’s the next chapter we’re building. Together. 💚
