    Default R1 Selection

    This is kind of a big deal in terms of University perception.

    We all live in stories... It seems to me that a definition of any living vibrant society is that you constantly question those stories... The argument itself is freedom. It's not that you come to a conclusion about it. Through that argument you change your mind sometimes... That's how societies grow. When you can't retell for yourself the stories of your life then you live in a prison... Somebody else controls the story. - S. Rushdie

    Then sprinkle in the fact that they actively dislike success demonstrated by NDSU

    I don’t think that’s a factor in the research rankings.

    I dont know who is incharge of enrollment but NDSU enrollment efforts are a huge embarrassment. Every middle school and high school notice boards in Minnesota are filled with pamphlets, insignia, or flag from all universities SDSU, UND, UNI, Bumidji, St.Mary, St.Thomas, UM, etc except NDSU.

    I don't know if this is arrogance or stupidity from NDSU administrators, either way it looks like NDSU administration is not very serious about recruitment compared to other colleges.

    To be fair, DB saw the importance of enrollement. He set the goal for 18K, and was immediately smacked down by the BoHE, idiot Minot politicians, Rob Port, and others who criticized him for chasing student numbers. So, that goal was abandoned. Not saying he would have gotten there, but his instinct was that we need to get to a critical mass of enrollment to weather the inevitable enrollment declines that were coming due to nationwide declining pool of H.S. graduates.
    I don't care what Jim says. That is not the real Ben Franklin. I'm 99% certain.

    EVERY middle school and High School? Wow you get around.

    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.
