Located on the corner of 12th Avenue North and University Drive and tucked between the campus's most beautiful gardens and lush, large trees, Burgum’s location provides quick access to the University library, and the Memorial Union which houses the Union Dining Center, the NDSU food court, the University Bookstore, Caribou Coffee, One-Stop student services and more. Burgum is also within a few minutes’ walk to the local Loaf N Jug gas station, Jimmy Johns, Herd and Horns, and Bison Nutrition. 

When you walk through the doors at Burgum Hall for the first time, you are transformed into a Burgum Bella! Bellas are sisterly--they respect one another, support each other as they figure out life as a college student, and encourage each other to excel academically. Bellas, staff and residents, promote and maintain a harmonious, tight-knit community where each resident can be herself, and everyone feels included. Bella residents are all individual leaders within our building and become fully invested in experiencing all the hall has to offer during their time here. You can always find the Bellas at Burgum family dinners at 5 in the Union Dining Hall, vegging out together on the building’s beautiful lawns when it’s warm, or having pop up game and movie nights in the lounges.

Hello everyone! My name is Emma Mueller, and I am the Burgum Hall Director. I’m from Shakopee, Minnesota but I moved to Fargo to attend NDSU where I completed both a Bachelor’s degree in English and a Master’s degree in Educational Leadership. I am a cat mom to my big orange fluff, Odin. Odin is polydactyl (he has thumbs), so I'm convinced he’ll eventually figure out how to open my front door to sneak out and see what all the commotion is. In my spare time, I like to lift, cook, bake, read, play video games, and watch movies (proud nerd here!). Also, I am coming clean, I am a big Swiftie, so don’t be surprised to hear her music emanating from my office in Burgum (note the song titles hiding in this bio).

I am enchanted to be in the Hall Director role, as it gives me the opportunity to work directly with students, student staff, and student leaders. I want to create a safe and inclusive space for all students as we work together to tell the story of us. You belong with me at NDSU (and at Burgum!). If you need anything, you can come find me. I’m always filled with happiness to see you and look forward to fostering a connected community with you as you begin again at NDSU.
