Utah State University’s system of campuses statewide makes higher education accessible to residents across the state and USU Uintah Basin is proving that rural campuses still provide the opportunities and mentorship they need to thrive in their future pursuits. “As the degree granting institution in northeastern Utah, we are proud of our graduates who are well prepared for graduate studies and careers,” shares Associate Vice President James Taylor. “We are equally pleased that many choose to give back to our region by returning as critical members of our professional workforce.” An article in Utah State TODAY features the stories of Bailee Bird, Mackenzie Holmes, Kelly Bjerke, and Kolby Lance as examples of four USU Uintah Basin students whose time at the northeastern campus provided them with opportunities that have helped them thrive.
