This doesn't mean much but Cal Poly and NDSU were among the top 5 "Best Values for
Public Colleges and Universities" named by Consumer Digest.
I have a link but it's not the best as soon as a better one comes along I'll post it.
Personally, I can't see how a list like that could have NDSU without having UND on it too. The two schools are nearly identical by any general measurement - except that UND's faculty-to-student ratio was always better. I've always thought this was because UND gets 40-50% more money from the state per student (so it costs the state 40% more when a kid chooses UND over NDSU for getting a degree in business administration or something), so you'd think they'd be 40% better in all areas.
