AGP Executive Report

Last update: 12 hours ago

Higher Ed Tech Funding: South Dakota Board of Regents is asking lawmakers for nearly $25 million to modernize public university tech, including $20 million for a Future Ready Technology Initiative aimed at upgrades, cybersecurity, and expanding AI use across campuses. Local Politics & Civic Life: Democrats are dropping out of deep-red Senate races in states including South Dakota to clear the way for independents, a strategy meant to pull crossover voters—though it’s already met resistance within the party. Public Health & Home Life: Bedbug infestations are rising, and some researchers warn they may be linked to harder-to-treat infections like MRSA, adding urgency to prevention and early action. Arts, Culture & Community: A custom “America 250” trike debuted in Sturgis, bringing southeast South Dakota’s Menno into the spotlight with patriotic artwork and a stop planned back in the state. Faith & Service: The Surgite Eamus Mass & Dinner in western South Dakota raised more than $57,000 to support seminarian education and formation. Outdoor Family Fun: Prairie Fest returns Aug. 22 at Good Earth State Park, pairing grasslands education with a last-summer outdoor outing for budget-conscious families.
