Madison – Dakota State University recently hosted the South Dakota Business Education Association (SDBEA) Fall conference on October 10^th.

The one day conference featured Linda Morgan, President of the Mountain Plains Business Education Association and instructor at Eastern Oklahoma State College in Wilburton, OK.

The Mountain Plains is one of five regions in the United States belonging to the National Business Education Association (NBEA).

Morgan focused her presentation, titled "Education: an Interactive Journey", on teaching in the classroom and the value of that teaching. "Educators can make a difference. We have to. If we don’t take interest in our youth, we have no future," said Morgan.

Others involved in the conference were Lynette Molstad, Assistant Professor for the College of Business & Information Systems at Dakota State and the SDBEA Board – Mickey Neuharth of Eureka, Michelle Metzinger of Cresbard, and Lynnette Heitz of Ipswich.
