The partnership agreement between South Dakota State University and Chungnam National University in Daejeon, Republic of Korea was initiated by Dr. David Hilderbrand, Director of International Programs, and Professor Yong Kook Kim, Chungnam National University. Professor Kim came to SDSU as a doctoral student and earned his Ph.D. degree from the department of Dairy Microbiology in 1990.

When he returned to Korea, he met with administrators at CNU who embraced the idea of a partnership with SDSU. A copy of a letter to Dr. Hilderbrand confirming the interest of CNU administrators in the arrangement is included in this file.

Also included is a letter to Ranny Knutson, Registrar at SDSU, regarding academic credentials at Chungnam National University. The investigation preceded the signing of the formal exchange agreement.

President Duck-kyun Oh and Professor Sung-chul Shin came to South Dakota in February 2001. Following their visit, the formal exchange agreement was signed and approved by the Board of Regents. The first exchange professors from CNU arrived in the fall of 1991. Lists of exchange professors and CNU graduates whose advanced degree programs at SDSU were supported under the agreement are found separately.

Dr. Carl Edeburn, College of Education, Department of Educational Leadership, represented SDSU as its first exchange professor in Korea. A newspaper article about Dr. Edeburn's experiences is included in this file.

While on site, Dr. Edeburn and Dr. Yong Kook Kim organized the first SDSU Alumni meeting. Copies of the invitation and a list of invited guests will be found in the file along with photocopies of pictures taken at the event. This meeting set a precedent for future alumni gatherings held while the Seminar Abroad groups were in Korea.

Dr. Yong Kook Kim and his family continued to be involved with South Dakota State University. Dr. Kim returned to SDSU for post-doctoral research in 1996 and 1997. A Christmas card in which Dr. Kim refers to the arrangements for his post-doctoral work is found in this collection. His daughters, Na Young Kim and So Young Kim, both attended SDSU. Na Yong received a degree in Electrical Engineering in December 1991. Currently, she is nearing completion of a master's degree from the College of Engineering. So Young Kim expects to receive a Pharmacy Doctorate in spring 2005.

Dr. Kim's strongly promoted and supported exchange activities between the two institutions. Each year Seminar Abroad participants were entertained by Dr. Kim and his family in their apartment in Daejeon or at their farm in the country. Photos of these occasions are found in the collection.

At the South Dakota State University dinner in Korea in May 2001, Dr. Kim was presented a plaque in the shape of the state of South Dakota in recognition of his service to SDSU and the exchange relationship. His thank you note for the plaque is found in the file.

Chungnam National University recognized South Dakota State University as its most important partners. Additional documentation of exchange activities can be seen in lists of visitors and students who exchanged, the itineraries for official visits, and social events held in honor of guests and professors which are found in separate files.

Cook-Lynn, Elizabeth

Elizabeth Cook-Lynn was born in 1930 in Fort Thompson, SD on the Crow Creek Indian Reservation. She is an enrolled member of the Crow Creek Sioux Tribe. She currently lives near Rapid City, SD.

Cook-Lynn earned her bachelor's degree from South Dakota State College (now South Dakota State University) in 1952, graduating with a BA in English and Journalism. In 1971 she completed her Masters of Education in Psychology and Counseling at the University of South Dakota in Vermillion. She also attended the University of Nebraska in 1977-1978, enrolled in a doctorate program.

Cook-Lynn has taught high school in both South Dakota and New Mexico. Beginning in 1971 she taught English and Native American Studies at the Eastern Washington University in Cheney, WA until her retirement in 1990. She is now a Professor Emerita. After her retirement, she also taught at the University of California at Davis as a Visiting Professor. While at Eastern Washington University, Cook-Lynn, along with Beatrice Medicine, Roger Buffalohead and William Willard, founded the Wicazo Sa Review: A Journal of Native American Studies. She also speaks at various conferences throughout the United States on issues relating to Native Americans, as well as at literary gatherings and conferences to discuss her works. Along with Dr. Charles Woodard, she organizes a yearly writers retreat for Dakota/Lakota/Nakota writers at Oak Lake Field Station, near Brookings, SD.

Cook-Lynn is now a full time writer and has published works in a number of different genres. Her writings deal primarily with stories and situations relative to the Native American experience. Cook-Lynn's first publications were in 1983 with Then Badger Said This, and Seek the House of Relatives, compilations of short stories and poetry. Her next work, The Power of Horses and Other Stories is a collection of short stories and was published in 1990. She continued to write and work on her fiction after that publication, and completed From the River's Edge in 1991, finishing that series with Aurelia: a Crow Creek trilogy, published in 1999. Between the completion of that trilogy, Cook-Lynn published some of her non-fiction works. Her book Why I Can't Read Wallace Stegner and Other Essays: a Tribal Voice was published in 1996, and in 1998 she published both The Politics of Hallowed Ground: Wounded Knee and the Struggle for Indian Sovereignty, written with Mario Gonzalez, and a work of poetry, I Remember the Fallen Trees: New and Selected Poems.

Some of Cook-Lynn's works have been included in anthologies of Native American literature, including Harper's Anthology of 20th Century Native American Poetry, ed. Duane Niatum, HarperCollins, and Reinventing the Enemy's Language: Contemporary Native Women's Writing of North America, ed. Gloria Bird and Joy Harjo, W. W. Norton. In addition to these works, Cook-Lynn has also had published numerous book reviews and articles including journal articles and newspaper editorials. She is considered a leader for her Crow Creek Sioux Tribe because of her outstanding contributions to Native rights through exposing and detailing the Native experience through her writing and speeches.

Cook-Lynn has received a number of awards for her writing. She received the Literary Contribution Award for 2002 for the Mountain Plains Library Association. In 1995 she received the Oyate Igluwitaya from the Native American Club at SDSU. She was awarded a fellowship from the National Endowment for the Humanities in 1978.

Corothers, Lonita Gustad

Lonita Joyce Gustad was born on May 19, 1928 in Sacred Heart Hospital in Yankton, South Dakota. She lived on a farm near Volin, South Dakota with her parents and a younger sister, Roberta, nicknamed Bobby. Lonita was 17 years old in 1945 when she began keeping a diary. World War II was ending and the second atomic bomb was detonated in Nagasaki, Japan when she realized that she was living in momentous times, but that in time the details would be forgotten.

She graduated from Yankton High School in May of 1946 and began her college education at South Dakota State College in September of the same year, graduating with a degree in pharmacy on June 5, 1950. Her pharmacy class of 1950 was comprised of eight women and 56 men. Her minor was in chemistry, a field that was also predominantly male at the time. Following graduation, she worked at Woodward Pharmacy in Aberdeen, South Dakota for a year. She then moved to Sioux City, Iowa where she worked and lived until the time that she donated her papers to South Dakota State University.

She met Thomas Edward Corothers during her time at college, whom she married on June 24, 1951. The couple had one child, a son named John born on August 3, 1952 who was killed in a motorcycle accident in Honolulu, Hawaii on July 25, 1972. Her husband died on March 1, 1998 at the age of 71.

Council of Higher Education (S.D.)

  • Corporate body

Through the latter half of the 20th century, there have been attempts to unionize faculty at South Dakota State University and across South Dakota. Short-lived attempts by the American Association of University Professors and the South Dakota Higher Education Faculty Association ultimately failed, although they did lay the groundwork for the eventual success of the Council of Higher Education.

In 1978, the Board of Regents officially recognized the Council of Higher Education.

The Council of Higher Education (COHE) is the exclusive representative of the collective bargaining unit for the purpose of collective bargaining in respect to rates of pay, wages, hours of employment, grievance procedures and other conditions of employment. The bargaining unit includes full-time and regular part-time instructional-research faculty in college and universities, the Agricultural Experiment Station, Cooperative Extension Service, Auxiliary Services, the South Dakota School for the Visually Handicapped and the South Dakota School for the Deaf. These faculty may not be supervisors. The unit does not include the Medical School, the Law School, or the Institute of Atmospheric Sciences.

The unit excludes deans, directors, department chairpersons, department heads, principals, superintendents, program managers, and others who are supervisory and managerial, and also emeritus faculty; teaching and research assistants, clinical faculty; county agents, county home economists and ROTC personnel.
