Granted, selling UND to Floridians wouldn't be an easy task, but part of UND's Strategic Plan is to Florida is the fourth most populated state, so it meets the great supply of students statement and with enrollment caps coming on the 11 universities the potential for out-migration of students will be growing. Now may be the time for UND to capture some of these students.
Edit: As a side note. when I was in college in the early '80's there was geography student in my class from Pensacola. Ironically that is now where I live.
Additionally, there is a well-known GF restaurateur from Long Beach CA, who went to UND and decided to stay in GF and open a bar/restaurant.
