I really wonder how much NDSU spends every year fulfilling open records requests?????
Given the Fargo Forum's anti-NDSU stance, I am surprised they even put this article in.
A few other surprises
1. The headlines were not sensationalized, were not misleading and were actually - dare I say it - displaying a positive attitude toward Bresciani, i.e., he had actually done something correctly.
2. It displayed that he had forwarded information to SBoHE, Mark Kennedy (communication, etc). Of course, he may have done this because he had to turn over a new leaf but it did demonstrate A) he either does this routinely B) or at least he has begun to comply with their wishes.
3. At the very end for those who do not wish to open the link (something which I did reluctantly), another surprise is that the definitive authority on all of this, Patty Vivrato, commissioner of the MVFC, actually when questioned if Bresciani had been negative towards UND joining the MVFC, replied "actually, no, quite the contrary is true" or something like that.
The last sentence of any article is often the one that stays with you and the fact that the Forum placed this there has somewhat of a resounding impact.
Whether this article signifies a trend or not...I doubt it. Who knows. Maybe I am "reading" this article more positively than the rest of you.
The Fargo Forum being the Forum, could have just let sleeping dogs lie and not reported this at all and let those who think Bresciani truly did not want UND in with us continue to think that rumor, but instead they did report it. Maybe there are some "closet" NDSU admirers on the FCC staff. I still am thrilled I cancelled my subscription 2 years ago.
Dean liked my facebook post for my birthday 5 minutes after he received my email regarding mountain west conference. the SBOHE forced dean/ndsu to help und into conferences. what a joke. I got the text, marching orders came down for NDSU to assist und at EVERY LEVEL. athletics, academia, research. NDSU was politically RAPED.
Mountain West football only would be easy. NDSU in fargodome at 20k would rank 5th outta 12 in conference

If we concentrated on the really important stuff in life, there'd be a shortage of fishing poles"
When you play football, you gotta like the taste of blood, And 50 percent of the time, it's your blood.
It is characteristic of the unlearned that they are forever proposing something which is old, and because it has recently come to their own attention, supposing it to be new.
