Homecoming Week!
It's homecoming week for the University of North Dakota in Grand Forks.
“It’s been a really tough couple years for us as a community,” said Tiana Staudinger, the president of UND Greek Life. “Being in college you want to have an experience to meet people from four different age groups and it’s awesome to come back to campus, be able to get to know each other, have social interactions again and support the community.”

Oct. 19: UND Blood Drive (Gorecki Alumni Center) 10 A.M. - 4 P.M.
Oct. 20: Hawks Hour (Bonzer’s Sandwich Pub) 4:30 P.M. - 6:30 P.M.
Oct. 21: Grand opening for Drilling and Completion Lab/Research Facility 2 P.M. - 4 P.M.
Sioux Awards Banquet (Alerus Center) 5:30 P.M.
Drive-In movie (Alerus Center) 6 P.M. - 9 P.M.
Oct. 23: Homecoming Parade 10 A.M.

Pretty disappointed to see students moved away from 50 yard line seats and still can’t fill these prime seats.  At least the students filled a section.  Move them back if no one is going to sit there

Gotta love less atmosphere for just an attempt at "looking prettier on tv."

And add it to the other newest "less atmosphere" attempt... Closing off an entire end zone to fans.

Just a great job all around!

"Filling seats" for the first half only is why they got moved. Students do not provide home field advantage. Band playing until we snap the ball hurts the team.

I’ll take 1 half of full seat vs a whole game of empty seats.  Looked basically the same vs drake

Attendance: 8,807

Under pays out.

8807 for Homecoming is embarrassing.

Over a couple years, I've sent emails and a letter showing concerns friends and I had of having students sit at mid-field.
A few reasons came to mind, but the biggest was;
No other Div I football team in the adjacent state area had a student section at mid-field (Montana, Montana St, SD, SDstate, NDSU, & Min). All had them at the 30 yard line and towards the end zone and/or behind the end zone.
