In his previous work at LSC he was instrumental in positioning LSC as the state's largest provider of Internet-based instruction. We are confident that he is the right person to lead our efforts to build distance education and information technology programs. Prior to accepting the position, Dahl served as a member of LSC's accounting faculty and coordinated the college's online instructional program. Prior to joining LSC, Dahl taught at the University of Minnesota - Duluth, Florida Atlantic University and Arizona State. Dahl holds Bachelor and Master of Science degrees in Accounting, both from Arizona State University at Tempe.
Dahl acknowledges enjoying researching, learning about and implementing new technologies.
I expect the connection between technology and education will continue to grow. That means that we'll need to embrace technology to remain competitive. With more than 750 students enrolled in 28 online courses this past spring, LSC is the largest provider of online education in the Minnesota State Colleges and Universities system. The college is one of the fastest growing in the state and served more than 10,000 individuals, during the 2000-2001 academic year.
