FARGO, N.D. (AP) - North Dakota officials are looking for applicants for two positions on the state Board of Higher Education.
The terms of two members, Terry Hjelmstad and Grant Shaft, end on June 30. Hjelmstad, of Minot, has served one four-year term and is eligible to be appointed for a second term. Shaft, of Grand Forks, has served the maximum two four-year terms.
A nominating committee will forward three nominations for each vacant position to the governor, who appoints the board's members.
North Dakota voters last week rejected an initiated measure that would have replaced the board with a full-time, three-member commission.
