"New Americans" what do they bring to the table in the region
UND1983 replied to Redneksioux's topic in Community
What you said about their experiences before they arrived is 100% accurate and needs to be factored in. The people that came from Liberia, Eritrea, Ethopia, and Sudan all saw some bad stuff during the constant wars that were going on. I can say for fact that the ELL kids in local elementary schools are some of the nicest kids you will ever meet and most* have good parents that care. -
People who matter? Like you or who are you talking about?

Considering they don't sell the Sioux logo hardly anywhere now, it is not true that sales were sky high. Also, I assume that UND wants to make money in the future, correct? Sioux logo won't be available in the future so it might be hard to make money off of it.

Geez, Buck Up Butter Cup. You need more to worry about, wow.

Biggest drawback for each remaining name (final 15)
UND1983 replied to jimdahl's topic in UND Nickname
It seems as if nobody has ever addressed the final conclusion, which is the most important. Does Bob K. simply choose whatever got the most votes or is the popular voting (if that's the way we vote) just a piece of information for him to make a final decision? This is actually very important and hasn't been addressed to my knowledge. Anybody know the details? -

Next question; Once the last 3 are chosen, is it a popular vote via the internet to pick the name? And if so, are they really going to choose whatever name gets the most votes? -

They will say Riders - Lady Riders when referring to them on the radio, etc. Riders isn't a gender like orangeMEN. -

But the hockey faithful told us that having Karl on the committee will be awesome! A true hockey/Sioux guy. -

Instead of stupid comment, why not answer the question? At this point of this marathon process is it really worth making it last longer for no reason. -

If we are already forecasting that there may be issues with the NCAA because they are a fickle bunch why would we even waste our time? Why not get it done with once and for all the first time? -

Oh, so now people think we should let the vote decide and IF 'No Nickname' is picked, we should then see what the NCAA thinks. If they don't like it, then we should pick the second choice. That is some sound thinking. This is getting more stupid by the day. Please end the misery. -
Take that for whatever he will go to. Call Gate City if you have to.

Pretty much the entire football watching country, yes. I fully expect 20-30 million viewers for that opening game. Sincerely, Jeremy Jorgenson

If he had said "UND" instead of North Dakota would it have been much closer to the truth?
-
I cannot wait until we have a new nickname and we don't have to deal with these issues anymore.
-
The Forum published their opinion letters on how "Sioux" they are, correct?
-
Does it really seem like they are willing to move ahead? All they talk about is the past.
-
Your University is doing it for us. Actually quite surprised at how much importance they have placed on the game, ya know, considering it was just a schedule filler.
-
Yah, the AD's and Presidents are coming out on the record and telling everyone exactly what they are talking about with member institutions. Those official articles are everywhere.
-
No it couldn't. They are already North Dakota.
-
No scare tactics needed. This one sells itself. Name is gone and a new one is on the way.
-
how much did season tickets go up? How much difference is there between the und game and the next closest game in price?
-
The name is gone, Chief.

Your school made the shirt. Not some third party. The adults you interact with can deny the hype of the game all they want but its your own school that felt it was that big of a deal. The price of the tickets, c'mon. How do you even argue once you saw that?
