Schmidt joins Nicolet College Board of Trustees
New to the board is Stephanie Schmidt, from Crandon. Returning board members are Bob Egan and Scott Foster, both of Eagle River. Each will serve a three-year term on the guiding nine-member board.
"It is such an honor to be able to serve on the Nicolet College Board of Trustees," Schmidt said.
"I look forward to advancing the college's mission and be of service to everyone in Nicolet District, especially the students who attend Nicolet," she added. "Now more than ever the training provided at two-year colleges gives graduates the skills they need for successful careers and Northwoods businesses and industries the quality workforce they need to be competitive, efficient, and profitable."
For the past three years Schmidt has served as director of the Crandon Public Library and this fall will start a new job as a social studies teacher in the Wabeno School District.
She has a master's of Arts in History from the University of Wisconsin - Milwaukee and a bachelor's of Arts in History from UW-Stevens Point.
Earlier, Schmidt attended Nicolet classes for three years through the Youth Options program when she was a student at Crandon High School.
She also has extensive experience with professional and community volunteer organizations. These include serving as chair of the Wisconsin Valley Library Service, co-chair of Wisconsin Library Association conference planning committee, Forest County Animal Shelter, and the Forest County Fair, along with volunteering at numerous other organizations.
The board also elected officers at its recent meeting. Ryan Zietlow, Rhinelander, will serve as chair; Dianne Lazear, Tomahawk, vice-chair; Scott Foster, Eagle River, secretary; and Bob Mott, Pelican Lake, treasurer.
Other trustees include Bob Martini, Rhinelander, Sharon Nielsen, Eagle River, and Joseph Salzer, Rhinelander.
