Higher Education By Tom Gerhardt, NDU Communications

North Dakota United loves to highlight our talented members whenever possible. That’s why this year we featured two of our higher ed members in our upcoming fall member drive campaign.

Darin Buri, UND’s College of Engineering and Mines, and Dr. Lydia Tackett, NDSU’s Geology Department, graciously lent us their time to record two videos that will be used for various advertising purposes to attract new members to North Dakota United.

Here’s what they each said about their experience being featured in the campaign.

“I was happy to be a part of the North Dakota United video, because I think ND United does a lot for me as a state employee by keeping me informed about decisions that affect me at the statewide level, who is making those decisions, and how I can make my voice heard in those areas.” - Dr. Lydia Tackett

GREAT PUBLIC EDUCATION

GREAT PUBLIC SERVICE

“I am honored to have been asked to represent my local in this video. Hopefully my participation in this effort will help put a face to our local here at UND. It doesn’t take a special kind of person to make a difference, you just need to be willing to stand up and speak out about what you believe in. I am proud to represent NDU and UND local #6942 and I hope others will see this video and join us.” - Darin Buri
