SooToo Posted May 14, 2008 Share Posted May 14, 2008 Sadly, John Q. Paulsen has been passed over by a nominating committee for a second term on the ND Board of Higher Education. Apparently, the word "fiasco" came up in the discussion of his bid for a second term. Now who's going to spoon with Joe Chapman when the board overnights out of town? More importantly, who takes his place? Options include Michael Haugen, Fargo, former adjutant general of the ND Guard; Robert Harms, former Hoeven legal counsel; or Duane Pool, Bismarck, Nature Conservancy scientist. Most favorable choice? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most favorable choice? MG (Ret) Michael Haugen gets my vote even though he was blue (Air Guard). I had the opportunity to listen to him address a large group of officers and NCO's while he was still TAG. His degree of openness and honesty was refreshing. IMO...he is a straight shooter who will do what is right for the state of North Dakota. I can't imagine him becoming anyone's lapdog...
