The Sicatoka Posted March 2, 2011 Share Posted March 2, 2011 Ever wonder what big news at ND's agriculture college is? Well ... http://plainsdaily.com/story/10119 They're deeply worried about where they buried a cow roughly 80 years ago. Better? One of Isern's former students, Matthew Boe, researched the cow for his senior seminar in history. Boe, 25, who has since graduated and is helping on the family farm near Perth, N.D., said he could not draw any conclusions from the semester-long project. At NDSU you can spend a semester researching a cow burial and count it toward graduation. It's not smack, it's AP reported fact. And it just writes itself.

Bison Dan Posted March 2, 2011 Share Posted March 2, 2011 Since you're so interested in NDSU http://www.inforum.com/event/article/id/309425/ Only other school is Montana State that is in the "very high research activity" group - in ND, SD, and Montana Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Sicatoka Posted March 2, 2011 Author Share Posted March 2, 2011 Cow burial is very high research activity if you can spend a semester doing it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hayduke Posted March 2, 2011 Share Posted March 2, 2011 Hey, give them a break. It is NDSU. "Moo U". Maybe they are trying to find a "Sacred Cow"? (Bad joke of the day!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Sicatoka Posted March 2, 2011 Author Share Posted March 2, 2011 It's nice to see UM Crookston succeeding over its peers ... “We are looking to have a strong show and maintain the lead over the region as the race has tightened up between us (UM-C) and North Dakota State University." Golden Eagle equestrian teams host final shows and regionals Some big-time east coast newspaper recently did a story on college hockey arenas and their best attributes (mentioning the awesome smell of roasted Bavarian almonds at REA). I wonder if some big-time east coast newspaper will do a story on college equestrian arenas and their attributes? Will UM-C or NDSU win "most aromatic"?

ScottM Posted March 4, 2011 Share Posted March 4, 2011 SCSU ends homcoming From the School that brought you Protests against other schools now they turn on themselves. For whatever reason, SCCC has never really struck me as a school that does a good job of maintaining ties to its alums. Killing off homecoming seems like a perfectly asinine approach, even if they can't draw as well as St. John's. Some of the comments after the article are pretty funny though.

With this sort of rationale: other competition for fans from things such as deer hunting season, Overland said one would think Hobo Days at SDSU is in some serious danger of extinction.

The Sicatoka Posted March 31, 2011 Author Share Posted March 31, 2011 OK, so the University of Southern California isn't really "regional" (unless you consider Oxford and India Institute of Technology "not regional"), but here's something that can happen at USC in March, but not at UND. Brrrrr .... cold. Be careful! Link is probably PG-13. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1371313/USC-officials-appalled-fratboy-caught-having-sex-girl-roof-hundreds.html Favorite quote from the article: The Kappa Sigma fraternity house.

star2city Posted April 9, 2011 Share Posted April 9, 2011 While this board was in mourning about the Sioux losing, another scandal has been brewing within NDSU football. The previous story leads into this one, as the Chicago Tribune is announcing a new scandal from its rooftop. Chicago Tribune: NDSU wide receiver suspended for solicitation of minor In-forum: WR Howard suspended North Dakota State wide receiver Justin Howard, who was suspended for an unspecified time period, was charged in Cass County District Court for solicitation of minors and disorderly conduct. Court records show both offenses occurred on Nov. 28 – a day after NDSU defeated Robert Morris (Pa.) in the first round of the Division I Football Championship Subdivision playoffs at the Fargodome. Apparently, there must have been some excessive partying after first home playoff win, in what, 20 years? Probably a lot of partying on Bisonville now after the Sioux hockey loss, so Bisonville better be cautious. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was going to post the story on this yesterday but I figured it would get locked down just like my thread about the Bison baseball player driving into a house. The mods here don't like the bad boy NDSU stories on this board. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Sicatoka Posted April 16, 2011 Author Share Posted April 16, 2011 People, it's just a kids book ... http://www.morris.umn.edu/newsevents/view.php?itemID=11551 Teams vying for the Cup, besides Morris, include St. Olaf College and the University of Minnesota, Twin Cities. Now maybe Minnesota - Twin Cities campus will have a sport that maybe they can dominate in. The St. Cloud team will be spectators this year ... St. Cloud spectating from the start? The season must start with playoffs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
