There is nothing more important than the children and the youth of our community and it's an ideal spot for it.

It's great for our community and for the men and women in our armed services.

Obviously, it's disturbing that any individual like that could be working with the youth of any community. We tried to do everything we could to prevent that.

The youth are returning here. The thirty-something group is on the community boards. They have to feel that there's some progress before they'll do that. The proof is that we've gotten younger as a community and that has just not been happening in North Dakota.

There are no community centers, no senior centers or youth centers. We have to serve all those purposes. We have become the community center, almost by default.

I've always felt WSU was the premier university in the Missouri Valley Conference. We have the best community. We have the best overall facilities. We should be ranked, in all sports, at the top of our league.
