Chadron State College may be a location for an upcoming film on the death of former college faculty member Steven Haataja, according to an email sent Wednesday by CSC President Janie Park.

Hailing from Florida to California, from Texas to Minnesota, 46 people are vying for one spot at Chadron State – head football coach.

Auditor Mike Foley stated via email Tuesday that the Nebraska State College System annual audit will include items relating to the college’s football fundraising issue, and will be published by March 1.

CSC President Janie Park approved committee members for the head football coaching position Wednesday, Kara Vogt, director of Human Resources, stated via email early Wednesday afternoon.

Nearly $100,000. Through November 2011, that is about how much CSC has spent for accounting and legal costs incurred from the ongoing NCAA investigation into the college’s possible football fundraising violations.

Chadron State College officials, through the college’s human resources office, have outlined nine requisites they are seeking in candidates who apply for the head football coaching position at the institution.

Following a Dec. 28 press release that stated current Chadron State College Athletic Director Brad Smith and former football player Don Beebe will co-chair the search committee for the head football coaching position, CSC Director of Human Resources, Kara Vogt, stated today via email “The Administration has not finalized the structure of the search committee yet other than appointing co-chairs Brad Smith and Don Beebe. We will use the same informal selection process for the search committee as we have with others.”

Independent auditing firm BKD of Denver stated in a letter written Dec. 27, 2011 that it had erred in the accuracy of one of its exhibits in the report it submitted to the NSCS Nov. 14, 2011 regarding football fundraising proceeds at Chadron State College.
