Rivalries
I think a rivalry section should be added, do you concur? --Ndstate 07:27, 23 March 2007 (UTC)


 * Absolutely. UND has a history of strong rivalries with both NDSU and the University of Minnesota, as well as others. --Matthew UND (talk) 07:52, 23 March 2007 (UTC)

Controversy Section
I was just wondering how people felt about the mention of the Fargo Forum survey on the mascot name. I think it's pretty obvious that it is a completely non-random survey, thus it has little to no relevant information on the subject. It should already be assumed that some people are fine with the logo usage and some people aren't, that is the very definition of a controversy. I just think that including that information is useless and misleading. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 97.119.239.1 (talk) 08:41, 4 January 2009 (UTC)

How long should uncited material be left in this section before removal? Is six months enough time? How much time is appropriate if six months is not deemed sufficient? Sandcherry (talk) 04:44, 6 June 2009 (UTC)

To whom it may concern: it is not necessary to change the name, just the spelling. Sue. Johnny Cash has already written a fight song. The national organization for women should be enthusiastic, or not. A law school already exists on campus. It should also send the kind of message to the NCAA that needs to be sent. 75.244.233.73 (talk) 02:03, 1 October 2011 (UTC)Rick Becker '76

Hi folks. I found a poll conducted by UND in the year 2000 that reports student, faculty, and staff opinions on the naming/mascot issue. I'm not sure what data can be extracted in order to better flesh out this issue -- the report contains no discussion of the results, mostly just raw numbers -- so I thought I'd post a link on this talk page. I hope there's something in it that's useful, but here it is for the sake of posterity if nothing else.
