Statewide Student Organization Honors LSC President Kathleen Nelson 

(Duluth, Minn.) -- The Minnesota State College Student Association (MSCSA) has named Dr. Kathleen Nelson, president of Lake Superior College (LSC), "College President of the Year." 

"I am humbled to receive the President's Academy Award.  It is a special recognition by our state's student leaders," said Nelson. "It means a lot to me." 

MSCSA is a statewide organization that represents more than 100,000 students on 46 campuses, including all of the two-year colleges, in the Minnesota State Colleges and Universities (MnSCU) system.  It works to ensure accessible, quality, and affordable public higher education. 

Nelson was nominated by LSC's Student Senate President Jori Davis and then was selected by students representing MnSCU campuses across the state. The award was presented at a banquet held on Friday, April 22. 

With more than 5,000 students enrolled this spring semester, LSC is Northeastern Minnesota's largest two-year college.  LSC provides a wide range of programs and services, including liberal arts and science courses for transfer, technical programs intended to provide occupational skills, continuing education, and customized training for business and industry.  LSC is also the leader in Internet-delivered courses and programs in Minnesota.
