2018 Enrollment Numbers
Yuck. I guess it's nice to be bigger than UND again, but this is not the way to do it. I'm sure the numbers will come up a bit by the end of the third week, but still...
Fall 2017 numbers (after 3 weeks)
NDSU: 14,358
UND: 14,406
Fall 2018 numbers (day 1)
NDSU: 13,650
UND: 13,445

Re: 2018 Enrollment Numbers
That's a bit surprising. Seems like nationwide, enrollment is dropping but I haven't seen any numbers.
I wouldn't put much stock into 1 school year. State population has been flat. If it drops again next year, it would be concerning. Maybe 14k is the new norm and its leveling off
Who knows it could be a combination of higher standards, increasing tuition, flat population, and declining funding. Or it could just be a fluke.

Re: 2018 Enrollment Numbers
Periods of high employment puts downward pressure on enrollment.

Re: 2018 Enrollment Numbers
State gutting funding does much help IMO
Maybe it doesn't have any effect, but you have to think it does.

I'll take bets that when all is said and done UN_ will pass us. Not that they would fudge their numbers.

Re: 2018 Enrollment Numbers
Looking at national numbers, enrollment has been plummeting for 6 straight years. Less high school students and rising costs play a role. State funding is an issue most places.
My big picture theory is the federal government ruined college by guaranteeing all these student loans without screening them like a normal loan. It gives schools little or no incentive to keep the cost down since for years they had an unlimited numbers of paying customers with no risk since federal loans are guaranteed. Meanwhile college enrollment exploded and now it's all leveling out since prices are high and students dont want this much debt.
Not saying that's NDSU and UNDs problem but nationally it is.
I think the state needs to consider amending the Constitution and cutting a couple of ND schools. Way too many.

Re: 2018 Enrollment Numbers
The last school to close in ND was Ellendale in 1970, which gives me an idea about how to solve the problem.

Re: 2018 Enrollment Numbers
The last thing I heard on enrollment was that ND high school student enrollment at NDSU was stable relative to past years. But MN enrollment is down. MnSCU schools are doing a better job competing for those students, particularly in the Twin Cities. So are other schools in the region. You see Univ of Nebraska and Univ of Missouri planting recruiting staff in the Twin Cities as it is now seen as a ripe market for new students. It doesn't help that we had lame-brained legislators making very public statements about "why are we subsidizing MN kids with low tuition?" They were too dumb to realize many of them go on to become North Dakota residents, and that's good for the state.
Enrollment is important for so many reasons. Obviously, revenues drop with enrollment decline. But it also impacts our rating and prestige. Many folks outside of campus may not realize this, but our fall from the highest Carnegie research status as a university is in part due to our size. We actually increased in research the year we fell out. But when Indiana University took over the Carnegie classifications, the formula changed. It made it very difficult for a public university of our size to stay in that highest category. This is why getting to 18,000 students was so important. That number, with a boost in grad student numbers, is seen as the critical mass level for having the volume of research necessary to be in that highest ranking.
NDSU is a gem for the state. I suppose UND is as well. But the political short-sightedness when it comes to lack of support (financial and moral) for our research universities from our politicians is so frustrating. I think they long for the days when NDSU was just a solid regional masters university.

Statewide Minnesota admissions were down 2.1% last year but Moorhead State has 2 years of growth and a huge chunk of them are from Cass and Clay county. 25% to be exact. They were up in the spring as well. Curious how their fall numbers look. Clearly they have done a good job over the last few years while UND and NDSU are dropping.

This is spot on. MnSCU totally spanked us on this and nobody here was bright enough to see it coming. Either that or they didn't care. Very disappointing and people should lose their jobs for it, IMO. That simple. Enrollment is becoming a primary source of $$ for colleges/universities.

I have to say that I’m a little disappointed with Burgum here, although he’s in a tough spot. He’s got a state legislature that harbors anomalous hostility toward higher ed (mostly because of the RR valley, but it goes deeper than that) and a voting public that hates change of any kind. Not much he can do.
Looking at demographics, I would merge the smaller schools as ‘satellites’ under the administrative umbrellas of NDSU and UND, keeping faculty but gutting administration. But then nothing fights for its life like a dying bureaucrat …
Of course, this seems to imply constitutional change, which as I understand it would have to be a ballot initiative? In this regard, I’ll be very curious to see how the whole ‘legal weed’ thing shakes out, not from the perspective of higher ed (although evidence from CO suggests this would indeed lead to higher enrollments) but because of the scenario where the voters actually approve it and the legislature has to respond. That could be very interesting …

Some schools like Bottineau and Mayville are just too small and have less than a thousand students each. The market is proving they are not needed.
The legal weed bill (Measure 3) is great on all levels. Less people incarcerated, less court costs, less drug dealers, and in time it will be taxed and generate some positive revenue while cutting court costs and letting police focus on real problems. Some day when the federal government goes the route of Canada and full legalization, it could be a boom for farmers. Whether its hemp or full fledged cannabis. Canada is in the process of becoming the largest weed exporter on the planet. Billions with a B. There is a bill out there right now in Congress to legalize hemp federally and allow states to put the money into the banking system. We will be a step ahead of the game while other states will be playing catch up.

I completely agree with this. How would you propose which University gets to pull which colleges/satellite under it's umbrella, in a fair way? Location? Would total students have to be relatively even?

Maybe there’d be a battle not to take them? You’d get to cut administrative overhead but if there are really too many locations and not enough students you’d get saddled with a ton of inefficient infrastructure and related maintenance.

To derail the thread.
Legalized marijuana will do nothing for farmers.
A little back of the envelope marijuana economics. Let's say we have irrigated production north dakota. yields 5 tons an acre. the average american suddenly consumes two pounds of the stuff. Only need 60,000 acres of the stuff. ND has more than 20 million acres of cropland.
There will inevitably be overproduction and returns close to break even. I'll know that marijuana has officially arrived when it is covered in the farm bill.

Best part is having to deal with this smell popping up all over the place and not being able do anything about it if it's near your home.

Using the hemp as a renewable fiber source is where there possibly could be a demand but that is to be seen also. The cultivation for human use is not very impactful.

This will eventually be a global market. Canada is going to generate some generational wealth. Even if prices drop, the government will get their tax revenues no matter what and currently they get zero and spend money fighting it. Seeing it in a farm bill would make me laugh. Just because its funny.

If every adult American smoked one joint a day, 10,000 acres of irrigated cropland yielding 5 tons an acre would be more than enough supply the nation for the year.
About 12% of adult Americans use marijuana. You're now down to 1,200 acres. Probably half of users smoke less than once a month, 25% once a week, 25% daily. You're now down to less than 400 acres, or about three pivots, of production. Average ND Joe Farmer could do this himself.
Some ding dongs estimated $132 billion in tax revenue and more than a million new jobs. Horsesh#t. One farmer and a single processor could do this themselves. Much of the tax revenue is estimated to come from new wages and new business, as well as sales tax. It isn't going to cost a farmer $1,000 per acres to grow this stuff, but let's price is at $200/ton. Put it into little packets on a production line for 5 cents an eighth. So the cost of production is almost nil. People will pay a lot more, but only if they have to. Once the novelty wears off and competition sets it, the retail price is going to collapse.
The US might consume four million pounds of the stuff, but it is going to be like produce in the grocery store in my lifetime. (This is all that it is now, but there are for the most part a bunch of novices involved.)
Again, it's not a big deal. People don't have a clue how productive commercial agriculture is and they don't have a basic command of economics as economic returns under legalization will be driven to zero.

Sorry, it's not a big deal.
We could also tax tomatoes if the goal is to generate revenue.
It's not about space or quantity. It's about price.
An ounce of weed is about $400 bucks. An ounce of corn is probably a 50 cents.
Worldwide consumption dwarfs the US. Obviously most people won't admit to using it since its illegal

I really wish more would take that route as I hate the smell. With that said, I'm glad taxpayer money isn't being wasted on imprisoning individuals involved with the stuff. However, Colorado needs to get its act together in regards to making the funds more available to schools like they promised when the bill was on the ballot a years ago.

May be misinformed but isn’t the experiment in Colorado showing pretty poor results?
A weed smoking libertarian friend who is big on states rights told me it is failing because all states don’t have marijuana legal so all the low productive weed smokers moved there.
I suggested to them that is the reason for states rights. Allow a state to try it and if they fail other states don’t follow suit.
I don’t really care but seems to me the legalize weed crowd isn’t sticking to any real philosophy on the issue other than “legalize the thing I like.”

I bet it will be more per ounce than corn or wheat and it will be taxed like a motherfucker. Beer prices sure haven't dropped over the years. I dont think I can name a single item at the grocery store that's gone down in price over the last decade.
There's already a shit load of illegal weed on the market and more supply than ever, yet prices aren't dropping. If it's legal, you will see less illegal supply. It would be like selling moonshine when you can go to the liquor store.
But If the price of weed drops, that's a good thing. Even if its cut in half, that's still $200 per ounce

I dont think people flock to states because weed is legal. You can get it anywhere in the country. Most people just take a puff in the evening instead of a beer and relax or use it to enhance music or sex.
In 2014, the Colorado Canabis market generated 76 million in state revenues and 35 million for schools. In 2015 the state gained 135 million.
Some stats are mixed. Overall crime rates are down. Violent crime is down. There is a slight increase in traffic accidents, some attributed to weed. Youth usage of weed has actually dropped. Colorado's population has been growing fast for decades before and after legalization so that has to be factored into the stats

People are flocking to Colorado for a plethora of reasons. Weed doesn't hurt, but to say they are all "low productive citizens" is not true. As with any massive in-migration, there is going to be some riffraff. Lots of opportunity there for sure...and I've had a bunch of friends move there for non-weed reasons...that just might be an indirect reason. But Bot is right, these people were already smoking it long before they moved to Colorado. In fact, the legal weed is generally quite a bit more expensive than black market, and these people still buy it at dispensaries.

I know were having a discussion but I think we agree on most everything except farming. Who knows what it will look like in a decade. Im hoping we can kick Canada's ass in exporting it but I would just be happy if it was legal

I think you replied to the wrong post buddy. I agree with you 100%
Unless you just agreeing with me
I might add, you should always buy at at a dispensary or grow your own. Drug dealers could lace it or do anything to it. Makes it safer. I look at it this way. If you want weed, you go to a drug dealer. Dealers also sell other garbage so it sucks you into that world. Alcohol you go to a liquor store. When alcohol was illegal, you went to illegal bootleggers. I would rather grow my own I just like a tomato, or buy from a regulated place

The old laws are are even more ridiculous than alcohol prohibition. Its not really about the government benefiting. Its about living in a free country and not oppressing people for their own choices for something that has no lethal dosage. Although the government benefitting is a bi product of killing these medevial and oppressive laws
