Actually, NCAA riflery is an all-division sport, just like water polo and men's volleyball. Also, even if you win a title in that second-rate, not so far from D2 version of D1 football (D1AA), you will be doing it at the expense of the rest of your athletic program

Well, before we really get this involving the general public, we want to see whether or not President Kupchella meets with us and compromises, However we will bring your suggestions to the President, and Mr. Thomas. They are very much appreciated.

Thank you so much you three who have replied. Your suggestions are very helpful, and I will be sure to bring them to the attention of the group, and the students in general. I think that if we can get 11,000 people cheering together (instead of just the students) then we can make the REA rock much like the days of the old Engelstad. Thank you again for your suggestions, and please feel free to bring more.

A group of students gathered tonight on campus at the University of North Dakota to address their concerns with the administration's policy on sportsmanship. As many of you may have noticed, it was rather dead at the Ralph on sat. night. We are hoping to change that. Our goal is to meet with President Kupchella and the athletic staff in hopes we can work out a compromise regarding the atmosphere. However, if he refuses to meet with us (which could happen) we have a plan in place to put a lot of pressure on the forces at be to allow people (not just students) to cheer in a "somewhat" respectful manner. If any of you folks have concerns that you would like to voice, please let them be known on here and I will bring them to the attention of this group. We are not just a bunch of run-of-the-mill kids either, as some prominent students are on our side. All comments will be appreciated.

Well folks, there hopefully will be a solution to the atmosphere problem. A group of students has joined together to work towards a compromise with the UND administration and president Kupchella. This group is going to look at issues dealing with what students can or cannot stay, the standing situation in the lower bowl student section, and just atmosphere deadness in general. Hopefully we can accomplish something to help bring the 6th man back to Fighting Sioux hockey.
