NDSCS Leadership Transition Unveiled

North Dakota State College of Science is set for a leadership transition as Lisa Karch, former executive vice president, steps in as interim president starting July 1 — just as Rod Flanigan, who’s led the college since 2022, begins a paid administrative leave through December 31. Flanigan’s tenure saw major growth, including a 32% enrollment surge and the launch of the college’s first bachelor’s degree program. Karch, who recently backed out of a dean role at Concordia College to take this step, brings deep institutional knowledge and leadership experience from Minnesota State University Moorhead, ensuring a smooth transition as the new academic year and legislative session loom.
