 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Merge and redirect. North Dakota loves the Bison, and this publication is cited frequently in connection with NDSU sports reporting (here's one from Sports Illustrated:), but other than a non-NPOV university press release announcing its first issue I don't find much to suggest it needs its own, separate article.  The magazine is already mentioned in the main NDSU article; I suggest adding a similar sentence at North Dakota State Bison and calling it a day.  --Arxiloxos (talk) 01:40, 2 May 2018 (UTC)

 * Redirect per Arxilos; perfectly legitimate publication but the article's current state seems to demonstrate that a separate article can't really be justified based on independent coverage. It can correctly and usefully be mentioned in the general article about NDSU. ~ mazca  talk 22:14, 9 May 2018 (UTC)
 * For what it is worth, I have added information about the magazine to the media section in the North Dakota State Bison article. Editor10293813 (talk) 23:47, 9 May 2018 (UTC)
 * Redirect - agree with above consensus - not enough for a standalone - works as a redirect. TimTempleton (talk) (cont)  04:41, 10 May 2018 (UTC)
