Comparing UND athletic spending to competing schools Interesting piece on schools and $$ spent on women's sports. Among the six schools in this study, UND is the biggest spender on female athletic scholarships at $2,156,606. None of the five other schools spend more than $2,000,000 on female scholarship

I can't see UWF ever getting hockey. They will have their inaugural season of football this year, which will be played downtown at Blue Wahoo stadium until they get their football stadium built on campus. Football is king in the south. The UWF faculty that I know are not too pleased that the outgoing president pushed football through.

Mickey Volcan did the one year stint the same year that Kevin Maxwell did. I remember a game where Volcan was on the blue line and a Gopher player tried to enter the zone with the puck. Volcan flattened him. The crowd went nuts.

IceFlyers win the Championship with 0.2 seconds left in regulation. Gotta love the no holding call on the Peoria defensemen in front of the net. Peoria didn't seem too happy with the refs after the game....

http://www.undsports.com/mediaPortal/player.dbml?id=5357099&db_oem_id=13500 Nice compilation of UND athletics, with the national championship game at the end.

Watching the goal from the Championship game again, for the eleventy hundredth time. The time at each of the goals in the third period ends in "9", 18:39, 16:19 and 9:19. Number 9 coming up next year in Chicago.

LETTERS: Don't let budget cuts hurt diversity at UND The diversity crap is the first stuff I would cut. "Whole person"? It just keeps getting worse.

MIKE JACOBS: Revamp the university system, not just UND Once upon a time there was UND-Williston, UND-Bismarck and UND-Lake Region. Get rid of the duplication and perhaps consolidate some of the administrative responsibilities. Put Williston, Bismarck, Lake Region and Mayville under the UND umbrella and put Valley City, Dickinson, Bottineau and Wahpeton under NDSU. Leave Minot on its own.

Frozen Four: North Dakota finally breaks through semifinals drought

Cuban food is fantastic in Tampa.

Yes, Franken defeated Coleman when he picked up an extra 400-500 votes after the election.

I am not picturing people being brought to North Dakota against their will. But hiring a Diversity and Inclusion officer to "guide the university faculty, staff and students in ways to embrace and appreciate different cultures", sounds a whole lot like indoctrination. I haven't lived in North Dakota for over 20 years and I have seen a whole lot of different cultures, some I like and some I don't. We have enjoyed having Taiwanese exchange students in our home over the past couple of years. I enjoy going to the International Food Market and Hispanic grocery stores. There are other cultures that I don't appreciate and refuse to embrace. I want people to free to be able to discern that for themselves and not through indoctrination. Freedom!

Why does it need to be more diverse? Why force diversity. If it happens, let it happen. Why does UND need an associate VP for Diversity and Inclusion. To me, the Neanderthal, that sounds like forcing issues. The world is not inclusive, nor should it be. People should be allowed to be free.

UND president candidate says he would make university a top-tier institution Maybe I am a Neanderthal, but I don't understand why diversity is so important nowadays.

The Alerus is in some need of some atmosphere. The REA plays Chelsea Dagger for every goal. The longer that has gone on, the more people have gotten into it. I thought football could use something along the same lines. How about... Lyrics... Any other suggestions, music or otherwise?

I saw this over on the WAC board... Chicago State to end school year early to save money

The Florida list.

The North Dakota plates look too cartoonish. I saw a new Texas plate the other day. Flat, but a classic look.

I found this on the Weber board...Good crowd for UND. It's weird to hear this much noise coming from a Big Sky road game. This will be a good test for Weber.

I was there. Man that was that place packed. Chattanooga played a heck of a game and got a standing ovation upon defeating the Sioux.

The outtakes from the interviews thus far.
