UND for decades, and continuing in the present, has an excellent working relationship with the United States Air Force. Active duty and support personnel as well as their families and spouses have taken courses on campus at UND while stationed in Grand Forks. When rotated to other parts of the country, or world, they continue their education on-line. I can speak first hand having served two tours in Iraq and one in Afghanistan knowing personnel who were stationed in Grand Forks and were continuing to work for their degrees via the on-line availability. All spoke very highly of UND. UND does an excellent job of follow-up and remains in contact to encourage them to achieve their respective educational goals. Make no mistake about it these people are America's finest and I thank them for their service to our country.
(I point this out to those who intend to demean on-line students.)
