what is SDSU, chopped liver?

i think it's in his head i'm sure the BSC would be happy to hear from you guys

but how can you move up, you don't have a conference, you'd be doomed, doomed i say

Man, if you guys got Dave Chapelle that would be awesome!

you may refer to bisonville as 'candyland' but you are trying to build up interest for a game against Ferris State some of you guys must delusional, you'll win by 40

or you could do it by gpa those with the lowest would get the best seats 1. they probably won't be around the next year 2. they probably won't be able to afford them once they leave school 3. they're probably making the best use of their time, i.e. not studying

if you don't want to pay and you want the die hard fans, lines work the best hell, tell the students that it's first come-first serve starting at the glass, you'll have people their a week before you give them away!

UND should try a dutch auction start high say $500 slowly drop the price say by $20 the first to bid wins then slowly fill up the student section starting at the glass and providing steadily worse seats let students buy as many seats as they want as long as they have a ticket and a current student id when they walk in the door you could make a hell ova lot of money sure there are poor students who will get gipped, but it would be a good experience for them realizing life isn't fair when they get out of school

thanks for the info

i stand corrected, not to sound snooty, but do you have any proof of this?

if you guys really do like playing GVSU as you state you could schedule them as a non-conference game, but i don't see that happening

i think having lived through the anti-Ralph/Mascot stuff and keeping the University intact is quite impressive

i think b1234 was asking about dorms is that dakota hall new, the picture i found wasn't very good

same thing with the shirts, it's a little tough with rivalry being over, at the least on hiatus, some folks here at SU are definitely confused

that's an interesting set up then, you guys are pretty creative/cutting edge with distance education; i've never had a conceptual problem with counting students from Concordia/MSUM being counted as enrolled students, since they are in fact enrolled, but i do like it when the administration does give numbers for tri-college, part time, etc. i really like the credit hours measure that UND gives, that is probably the best objective measure overall if you want to measure impact, that combined with credits earned by full time/part time students, grad students, on-site, would really help as well

There has to be a different reason than that cratter. If you enroll in a class it doesn't matter if you're on sight or not. I wonder if it isn't some sort of non-credit training? Also, I think the 10,500 number has something to do with extension type activities?

i agree siouxjoy it's strange looking at the data however, that UND doesn't have a year in which there is a spike? kind of strange i'm surprised there are only 42 students at 'UND-fargo', but this is only their first year

you also missed in the release that a large portion of these students are involved in distance education that's a big number, a great way to educate students who aren't on campus, and a relatively inexpensive way to make some big bucks it should be pointed out the there was a change in the way that the ND University System counts students in that these are enrollment numbers, not full time students so some of the growth in the number of students the last few years is somewhat of an illusion

the scary thing is the long term trend of fewer and fewer kids in north dakota, UND and that other school to the south are in a very good situation being able to draw from the cities, but most other schools are facing challenging situations as time goes on the grad student numbers are quite impressive, i wonder how many of those are students in fargo?

i don't care if we play again, but this is not the sentiment of our athletic department or at least wasn't last february when the rivalry ended

i'm pretty sure you guys have an open invitation to visit fargo

forgot about that one

and basketball and volleyball and baseball and track did you forget about those sports as well?

no, but UNC is an exception in DIAA, while SCSU, Bentley, etc are definitely the norm in d2 after leaving the state for a couple of years, i realized that UND and NDSU have no business being D2, that's the big reason why i think you guys should move up

maybe that gives you guys an idea of what D2 football is in the rest of the country? it is good that selke is selling out for your game, they might add a couple hundred seats for next year
