WATERTOWN, S.D.(WNAX)- Mount Marty University, based in Yankton, marked fifty years of their satellite campus in Watertown this week.

President, Marc Long, says they had a nice turnout.

Long says it was probably the first off campus branch of any private college in the state at the time.

Long says they have a good relationship with Lake Area Technical College.

Long says while in some years they have had up to three hundred students, they will now aim for about one hundred from year to year.
