This Week on “Postcards from Wayne State” a press conference about the “Northeast Nebraska Growing Together” initiative… a major new four-year scholarship and cooperative education program at Wayne State…created in cooperation with the Aksarben Foundation and the Norfolk business community.

The President of the Aksarben Foundation Sandra Reding and Nebraska Governor Pete Ricketts were present for the announcement, both of whom you’ll hear.

One note – we weren’t able to be there in person to record the event with our own equipment, so we are borrowing the audio from other media that covered the event, with permission.  About half-way through the event, the audio starts picking up distortion, which we aren’t able to filter out.  We apologize for this, but we think the “Northeast Nebraska Growing Together” initiative is important enough to present the full audio.
