‘Dirty Jobs’ star Mike Rowe to visit for 10-year anniversary of Build Dakota scholarships
“Dirty Jobs” star Mike Rowe is stopping at all four of South Dakota’s technical colleges Thursday to celebrate the 10-year anniversary of the Build Dakota scholarship.
Build Dakota scholarships were founded in 2015 to cover the entire cost of attending the two-year technical colleges in the state. They’re given to 400 to 500 students each year. During the last 10 years, more than $21 million in matching scholarships have been awarded to nearly 4,000 students alongside more than 500 industry partners, according to a press release.
An endowment created by a $25 million gift from T. Denny Sanford and $25 million from the state fund half of each scholarship and is then matched by an industry partner, according to past Argus Leader reporting. In exchange for the scholarship, students must work in South Dakota for three years after graduating.
These scholarships cover all of the recipient’s tuition, fees, books and uniforms. At Southeast Technical College, for example, they’re available for 30 of the college’s “most in-demand careers.” This school year, STC has awarded 164 Build Dakota scholarships, all of which were sponsored by an industry partner.
Rowe will visit STC in Sioux Falls first Thursday morning, then Lake Area Technical College in Watertown, Mitchell Technical College in the afternoon and then Western Dakota Technical College in Rapid City.

Tim Begalka seeks re-election to South Dakota Senate
Clear Lake businessman Tim Begalka is running for re-election to the South Dakota Senate for District 4. Begalka served two terms in the State House and two terms in the Senate.
He and his wife Rhonda live in Clear Lake. Their have three adult children also live in the state.
Begalka has owned Sodak Gardens, a local greenhouse and nursery, for the past 30 years. The business was started by his late father Leon Begalka in 1954. Begalka is a graduate of Clear Lake High School and South Dakota State University, and is a fifth generation Deuel County resident.
While in the legislature, Begalka served on the agriculture, education and commerce committees and was vice-chairman of the Judiciary Committee. In his release he said he has always looked out for the “little guy,” whether that be an individual, family, township, small-town, farm, business or school. He is a defender of property rights, the 2nd amendment and the right to life, he said in a release.
“While in Pierre, I frequently witnessed the bigger businesses, schools, and government entities try to take advantage of the little guys,” Begalka said in a release. “The big guys already have more money, power, numbers, and lobbyists. The little guys need a Senator with a backbone to stand up for them. That’s what I promise to continue to do, represent the citizens of District 4.”
He has never lost an election, and his winning philosophy, he said, is “Always tell the truth, and try to be nice to everyone”.
Begalka will be on the ballot for the June 2 Republican Primary. In order to vote in that primary, you need to be a registered Republican in District 4 by May 18th. District 4 includes all of Deuel, Grant, and Hamlin Counties, greater Codington, southeastern Roberts, and all of Clark County except the southwest corner.
