This unmanned aerial vehicle recently arrived at Northland Community and Technical College from Israel. It was on display Thursday, June 13 during the NCTC Hangar Dinner with Jazz event.

The Northland Community and Technical College Foundation honored its donors and raised funds at the NCTC Hangar Dinner with Jazz event Thursday, June 13. The event was held in the Swenson Hangar on the college’s airport campus
President Dr. Anne Temte welcomed donors to the event. She said, “I deeply appreciate your support.”
Temte noted the college is growing, unlike many colleges in the Minnesota State Colleges and Universities System. “Our only big problem is the same problem that affects all of Thief River Falls, and that is housing,” she said. Temte encouraged those with extra rooms or available rental properties to rent to NCTC students.

Arthur Dahlen poses with a photograph of himself from his days in the Navy and his high school diploma from Kindred High School. In 1943, he enlisted in the Navy and never received a high school diploma. Thanks to his children and a special program, on Memorial Day, Dahlen received a signed high school diploma.

Seventy-years after he should have graduated from high school, Arthur Dahlen received a signed high school diploma.
It was a different time. In 1943, no one thought anything of three seniors on the championship high school football team entering the military.
Arthur Dahlen said as soon as Pearl Harbor happened, everyone knew everything would be different. 
Dahlen, who grew up on a farm near Kindred, N.D., with his two brothers and one sister, said his parents didn’t indicate one way or other about how they felt about him leaving high school in the middle of his senior year and enlisting in the Navy.
Maybe it was because Dahlen’s brother John was already in the Navy, and he had five uncles who had served in the military during World War I. But maybe it was just expected.
