And history tells us they will be insignificant as an athletic department once they are back with the big boys of the region. I’m sure people in the MVFC and SL think we are insignificant. It’s not like we are winning massive amounts of conference titles outside of volleyball. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How does one buy out a DII university? Who puts the price tag on a school that has been in SF as long as UND has been around (1883). I know Sanford has money but to buy out a college, seems highly unlikely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There have been all kinds of college mergers and buyouts. Here is a list. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_university_and_college_mergers_in_the_United_States UND merged or bought adjacent Wesleyan College, which used to be Red River College of Wahpeton. This is only a rumor, but Sanford just loves to through money around in Sioux Falls. The Med School part he would love, but USD’s Med School is already named Sanford. University of Augustana at Sioux Falls to differentiate from other Augustanas could be an agreeable name. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was the same reaction that came from you when I posted that Wisconsin and Minnesota could be forced from the WCHA to Big Ten hockey. There are almost 30 med schools under development right now and about 20 have been created this decade. Some are standalone, but Western Michigan, Central Michigan, NMSU, Illinois, have recently opened new schools plus many in Texas, Florida, Arizona and just near me are Lincoln Memorial, Liberty, and Virginia Tech. Osteopathic schools seem to be increasingly popular. The demand for more trained doctors is almost insatiable. U of Sioux Falls has merged with four schools in its history. One more merger could bring savings and much greater course offerings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Goon Posted August 7, 2018 Share Posted August 7, 2018 Here was the other post. what ever. Quote Otis Day You joke but I've heard the same rumor VF mentions of Augie purchasing the USF campus, or hell the entire school. That's some prime academic real estate right next door to their buddy Kelby's sprawling Sanford empire. USF does own the majority of the farmland which surrounds the stadium so one has always wondered if a campus move to the athletic complex is inevitable. I'd be all for it. Tell Kelby & Stephanie they can have the land if they build USF a whole new campus. We're tiny, won't take much Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
