Tear down all the vacant dorms and then in a few years claim "We have no room. We need to build more dorms!" Hear that? It's the sound of architects and contractors salivating. While having orgasms. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tatanka Center for the Perpetually Obese. Also housed is the Third Floor Research Lab for the cringeworthy passage of STDs..... which are also unsurprisingly, obese.

Lol.........that was back in the day when Noren (and Selke) was strictly a female dorm. As previously mentioned now there are male and female suites on the same floors. Not a fan of that. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Sicatoka Posted September 9, 2019 Share Posted September 9, 2019 Johnstone, Fulton, and Bek should be brought down. Probably Smith too. They were decrepit in the 1980s. The unoccupied one that surprises me is Swanson. However, with the Union being rebuilt next door idling Swanny for a year makes sense as its food service was in the Union. I hope they're using the time to refresh Swanson. And before folks ask, with Walsh idled, ... the hockey team is at U Place (and that's directly from one of the freshmen).

UNDBIZ Posted September 9, 2019 Share Posted September 9, 2019 Walsh was idled??? Terrible. They should tear down any dorm that isn't suite-style. Nobody wants a bathroom down the hall. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nobody wants a bathroom down the hall. I personally enjoyed having the large group bathrooms. Never had to wait to shower or use the restroom. If I recall, they got cleaned daily or every other day too which was appreciated. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SiouxVolley Posted September 10, 2019 Share Posted September 10, 2019 UMary made list of USNWR as a national U for the first time. Before it was a regional university. UND has helped their engineering programs by partnering with it. It wouldn’t surprise if they took hockey DI as they are eliglble and the WCHA needs local teams now. And their business and medicine programs continue to expand. https://www.usnews.com/best-colleges/university-of-mary-2992/photos Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GeauxSioux Posted September 28, 2019 Share Posted September 28, 2019 Official UND student enrollment for the 2019 fall semester is down about 2% from last year. UND’s overall headcount came in at 13,581 for the 2019 fall semester, compared to 13,847 students last year. The university added an additional 209 students since its first-day numbers in August. https://www.grandforksherald.com/news/education/4682535-UND-enrollment-down-slightly-from-fall-2018 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Having been an RA and seeing all the buildings, and personally lived in Walsh, JF and Bek, I respectfully think your list is crap. JF and Bek are some of the best dorms on campus. Most students, myself included, prefered the larger rooms over the tiny suite bathrooms. If any dorms should be demolished or remolded, it should be every dorm in the Wilkerson complex. Those were tiny and decrepit. As a side note, my mom made me stay in Walsh my freshman year because it was the only boys only dorm because she didn't think freshmen should be in coed dorms. I'm pretty sure that dorm had as many girls in as any of the actual coeds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Congrats. But if we're comparing resume and experiences ... I was the most tenured RA on campus the day I left Housing. I toured every hall on campus during my years (including East Hall). I lived in Walsh, and then Hancock. I'll take a suite over "cattle showers" every time. Hancock had just been converted from "cattle showers" to multiple shared single baths when I was there. Better, but I still missed my private RA suites from Walsh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Better, but I still missed my private RA suites from Walsh. I mean, I toured them all too. And I stand by my statement. Admittedly some people preferred the Wilkerson complex but that was usually because of the proximity to aerospace or the easy access to late night at Wilkerson. So I guess we will have to agree to disagree. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SiouxVolley Posted November 6, 2019 Share Posted November 6, 2019 The College of Engineering and Mines is now the second largest college at UND, passing aerospace. The Big Data initiative has attracted further collaborations. https://www.willistonherald.com/news/state/und-sees-growth-in-engineering-collaboration/article_a9edced4-0015-11ea-8fb2-cb215c8176eb.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
