Since we first learned in the fall of 2023 that the North Star Athletic Conference (NSAA) would be disbanding after the 2024-25 academic year, we have been exploring options for a conference home for Mayville State Athletics. Mayville State has been a member of the NSAA since its beginning in 2013-14. The association and its member institutions are subject to the National Association of Intercollegiate Athletics (NAIA) rules and regulations.
Our hearts are brimming over with campus and community pride! Many wonderful things are happening on a regular basis, but during the last couple of weeks, in particular, there has been great cause for celebration.

Spring break is just a week away. The spring semester is buzzing along. Students, faculty, and staff are busy with a plethora of activities, from hosting a STEM carnival for elementary school students to preparing for and attending the state Collegiate DECA conference and presenting a music recital, while noting that the regular academic work continues. Being busy most definitely makes time fly by.
