 Hi, I'm King Banyan from the School of Public Affairs at St. Claude State University. The school prepares students to be stewards of the public interests. Some prepare to work in the public sector as law enforcement officers, planners and economic developers, land surveyors who help define boundaries, teachers or public administrators. Others will go to the private sector, but they too contribute to civic life through volunteerism and community engagement. Our students serve over 40,000 hours each year in internships, many with public and non-profit institutions. They and our faculty both provide informed analysis of public policy to their workplaces, our communities and around the world.
