The sentence should have read, “The complex, he said, will bring in more students and with that Northern can get enough money to get a loan to make improvements to the dorms and pay back the loan with student fees....
Editor, BossTrump thinks that a shooter would not enter a hardened school because they don’t want to die. Quite the opposite. Excluding Parkland, how many shooters have come out alive? Most end with suicide. They welcome death. For whatever reason, life has become too hard to endure. Armed teachers, more deputies, this is nonsense. How about locked doors to classrooms and cameras in the hallways. Someone in a safe position could watch the monitors and hopefully spot a crazy with a yet unused war weapon. If spotted, a...

Last month, the Montana State University-Northern wrestling team came home from Ashland, Oregon, with a fourth-place finish in the Cascade Conference Tournament. Sure, the Lights were within three points of winning the whole thing, but it was still fourth place in the end. And for that reason alone, few pundits, and probably few coaches at the NAIA national tournament probably gave much thought to the Lights making a serious run this weekend in Des Moines, Iowa. The Lights the...
Montanan State University-Northern head wrestling coach Tyson Thivierge knew how good his team was prior to the start of the 2018 NAIA national championships. Now, the rest of the NAIA does, too.

And that's exactly what the Lights did. Saturday night at the Jacobsen...
