I second that....GO SIOUX!!

I used to live in Smith Hall ..room 346...top floor corner room..two windows!! HAHAH.. Probably still smells like Beer after..oh..14 yrs!
dang college was fun......

I went through the aviation program there as well, then instructed for a few years in the program to build flight time. Winters obviously suk but its a great environment to learn to fly. Not every day is going to be nice and sunny once your "out on the line". Have fun.

Sioux suck! Just kidding, NDSU alumni here! Lots of touch and go flights in the fog in Fargo when I was there.

Saw my first 928 in the very early 80's at the post office downtown Fargo. Went to the dealer and sat in one and all I could say was "someday.....".

Avg temp in January my senior year was -12 degrees. Moved to Phoenix the summer after graduation and saw 117 degrees!
