She wouldnt have had to teach if she was at und and could play hockies
Re: McFeely article about Skarphol
Reminds me of the racist old guy who says "I don't want to pay for those damn immigrants!"
All these are are scholarships. Except they are for top foreign students.

Easy, Senor. There are many good people in the Tioga/Stanley/Bowbells/Crosby area. Don't let Mr. Skarphol be your guide for how the normal folks up there think.
Re: McFeely article about Skarphol
Why can't we see universities as a potential attractor of world-class researchers to North Dakota? Heck, if Tommy from Minneapolis comes to NDSU while his tuition is being "subsidized" by the North Dakota taxpayer, is Tommy not paying money to live and probably work in-state? All of a sudden you're getting another source of income and transaction taxes that otherwise wouldn't have been here.
Is Skarphol aware that the state can grow independently of North Dakota residents never leaving and having kids that grow up here?

It appears Skarphol is residing in 1966, when the world was much larger and North Dakota much smaller. He's long been at war with higher ed, despises NDSU, dislikes Bresciani and likely doesn't think much of Fargo. None of which makes him unique in the Legislature, by the way. There seems to be a cabal of mostly western lawmakers who believe that "higher education" is defined as the second floor of their hometown school.

As I've said before, I'd do it all again... maybe next time I wouldn't transfer in - just come in as a freshman.

BINGO! Look at the new STEM startups in Fargo here, then look at the amount of NDSU Grads they employ.
Hint: It's a pretty hefty percentage.

The University of Illinois has made a fortune off of this.
Things do change if they are on assistantship, with tuition waivers.
To does Clemson as it is getting really hstf for in state students to get in.. They like those kids from Northeast who can pay full tuition and luv and warm weather.
