With the planned retirement of NDSU Extension Service Director Chris Boerboom, an interim director will be named. North Dakota State University Plant Pathology Chair Dr. Jack Rasmussen is chairing that search and says two candidates are being interviewed. Those candidates are NDSU Animal Science Department Head Dr. Greg Lardy and NDSU Extension Service Assistant Director Dr. Charlie Stoltenow. “The person identified in the search will be leading Extension through the next legislative session.” Rasmussen says the committee could complete its work and submit the report within the week.
