President Kevin Satterlee Celebrates Successes in Enrollment and Research in Annual Fall Address

In his final Fall Address Monday, Idaho State University President Kevin Satterlee told employees that he was proud of all the accomplishments the Bengal community has reached in recent years, and urged them to continue the momentum. 

“Idaho State University is not the same institution it was when I first marched through the Arch into campus. We have accomplished so much. And I am so thankful that I have been able to accomplish all of that with all of you,” he said. 

Idaho State University Surpasses $20 Million Scholarship Campaign Goal

Demonstrating the power of community collaboration, Idaho State University has exceeded its $20 million scholarship goal during its 2-year scholarship campaign, raising over $24 million in support of student success. 

Dedicated to fostering accessible higher education, the two-year campaign led to the establishment of 112 new endowments and 52 annual scholarships. This valuable support will directly benefit tens of thousands of Bengal students in perpetuity. Many of these Bengals are already experiencing the life-changing effect of this initiative. 

Duo Security Roll Out for Students

IT Services will be rolling Duo Security out to ISU students this fall, inviting a limited number of students at a time, beginning Tuesday, Sept. 5. We should have everyone invited and set up well before the end of the semester.  

The day before students are required to start using Duo, they will receive a heads-up email to their ISU email account. Duo multi-factor authentication will be required for them after that when they log into a secure ISU system, such as Moodle or BengalWeb.

Save the Date: ISU’s 5th Annual Indigenous Peoples Day Celebration and Teach-In

The Office of Equity and Inclusion invites students, faculty, administrators, staff, and community members to join them on Monday, October 9, for a day of learning and cultural celebration. This year's Indigenous Peoples Day theme is Culture, Community & Connection: Indigenous Health and Wellbeing. 

A teach-in is a day of activities on a theme designed to support co-learning among students, community, and faculty, staff, and university administration. Rather than a day off or an event you send your students to, it is meant to bridge learning inside and outside the classroom environment and to support application of content to your own teaching and research practice.
