Four vie for 3 Black Hawk seats
Star Courier
Voters Tuesday will be asked to choose from four candidates who are running for the three open seats for the Black Hawk College Board of Trustees.
Stevens, Larsen and Swan are running together as an election slate. They say they share many of the same regional concerns and solutions.
Kimberly Stevens is the owner and operator of Stevens Veterinary Clinic in Galva.
She says owning an animal-based clinic so close to the college has given her great insight into how the college interacts with the community. She said owning the business for the past 10 years has given financial management insights that will also be useful.

For the fifth straight year, Black Hawk College tuition will remain the same.
“The Black Hawk College Board of Trustees is proud to approve in-district tuition staying the same again for fiscal year 2022,” said Steve Frommelt, vice president for finance and administration.
At the BHC Board of Trustees meeting Feb. 25, trustees voted unanimously to keep in-district tuition at $149 per credit hour for FY22. The college’s fiscal year begins July 1.
“With all of the uncertainty COVID-19 has thrown into our lives, it was important to our board to keep the Black Hawk College tax levy and tuition the same as they currently are,” Frommelt said.
