    I fear that I've been posting about stuff that I don't understand again because our development team is so much different than places with lots of developers. So sorry about that.

    One thing is certain: I didn't go into computer science with the dream of managing other programmers - that sounds like more of a nightmare.

    Ha! Try going into the academe and chairing a department. It's harder than herding cats.
    The only reason some people get lost in thought is because it's unfamiliar territory.

    I don’t know, I did it for a decade. It’s a different puzzle for sure. People can be hard. I like dogs better. Nobody frowns at you if you have to hit that button on the shock collar.

    from a NDSU employee of 20 years

    For what? NDSU is stagnant and going no where. I know thirteen faculty who are leaving to schools like Cornell, Oregon State, Michigan, Ohio U, and Montana State this year

    The University is under extreme duress because of the enrollment shock.

    It's not good and people are leaving, like people do when an organization is faultering.

    The collapse of oil will only make this worse.

    There was an article a few days back that said applications were up 1,800 from the same time last year. Hopefully that's a good sign, though school officials were quick to point out that there could easily be other reasons for the increase like students applying earlier due to it now being easier to accomplish on smart phones.

    Maybe the universities should listen to Gov. B and find ways to provide a better product for students?
