VIEWPOINT: UND presidential search enjoys good start Is it normal for the process to take 1-1/2 years from the time a current president announces his departure until a new president is selected and seated as the new president? It just seems like an awfully long time.

OUR OPINION: Don't soft-sell UND nickname to candidates for presidency I would think that unless the candidates are clueless they would already have done their homework about UND and know all about the nickname issue. I would prefer that the candidate know as much as possible.

Diplomatic course?

Ditto that "Congrats".

As a Gulf Coast resident, we watch each tropical wave with interest and understand the impact these storms can have as they materialize into tropical storms and hurricanes. We prayed for the people of Jamaica tonight before the kids went to sleep.

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.

Perhaps UND should be looking south for new students as well. College-bound kids feel pinch of cuts

Law school, med school and aerospace would tend to skew things somewhat. l

Why are UND and NDSU Tier 3 schools and SDSU and USD Tier 4? What is the major difference in the Tiers?

If Josh Morton is the new head of FSC, what happened to Sarah Newgard, the old director?

Study: Newspapers Make Many Errors, Correct Few

I think your missing the point, seeing things through your "stream yellow" glasses. "Anyplace, anywhere, anytime" would imply that you don't make excuses for not playing someone. On a side-note, didn't baseball carry through for one more year until the Bison decided they didn't want to play UND anymore??

Are there any limitations on GPA? I mean as in "cannot exceed" type limitations.

OUR OPINION : The Kettering Bug and the humble origin of UAVs

This is what I find most interesting. Are they talking about reclassifying the whole NCAA system? Is it possible that they will decide that the only "full" DI schools will be those in conferences such as Big 10, Pac 10, ... As always, nice find S2C.

UND: Committee works to fine-tune president job profile

This story caught my eye because UND's Greg Weisenstein is on the list of candidates for FGCU, as well as listed as a possible UND candidate. The story is actually about a wealthy businessman from Michigan who is also a candidate at FGCU. After reading it started me thinking as to what qualities UND is looking for in their next president. Obviously fundraising and research dollars are a huge part of todays presidents, but beyond that would you like to see from the next UND president?

I realize this thread is in reference to D2 as a whole, but the NCC coaches and media polls are out and UND is on top of both of those polls.Sioux sit atop NCC preseason media, coaches polls

OUR OPINION: UND starts search for president

I saw this in the paper this morning and thought it pertinent as UND is looking for a new president.. Presidential paycheck UWF is a 40 year old Division II school that is transitioning from a commuter school to room/board type school. Beautiful campus in the woods 10 miles north of downtown. My property backs up to UWF, so I do lot of hiking in "their" woods.
