A native North Dakotan, I was born and raised in Crary, a very small town 100 miles west of Grand Forks. Therefore, I can relate to the background of many of the students we have the pleasure of serving. I want students to know that my door is always open, and I will be more than willing to assist you in any way that I can to make your experience at BSC an enjoyable one. -- James Wright
