Northern State Teachers College

Details
Written by: Bernard Punzalan
Published: 26 July 2012

Back in the days....several young Chamorro scholars attended college at the Northern State Teachers College (currently known as the Northern State University), in Aberdeen, South Dakota. In this March 3, 1955 article from the Aberdeen American-News, it featured the enrollment of Jose B. Manibusan, Consolacion San Nicolas (both from Sinajana), and Alfred B. Toves (Agat).

Ms. San Nicolas was on a government scholarship and graduated the following year in 1956. Both Mr. Manibusan and Mr. Toves were Korean War Veterans that used their education benefits and subsequently graduated in 1958.
