Re: FearEd no more

first they steal the San Diego Padres logo, now they steal the Penn St slogan "we are-Penn State". Have they no shame. I include the following link for their marketing dept to maybe help them be more original

It was between the "We Are South Dakota" and "You can go more anywheres from here"

Re: FearEd no more

I get your smacking us on that. For the record, I’ve never “thumped my chest” about our school being superior because we have business, medical, etc. I was fortunate it enough to play in this series and understand the significance of the rivalry. I like to banter back and forth and enjoy the ribbing with everyone ( well not Mitchell...he’s way to serious ).

But to to defend my degree from our business school, using reported admissions numbers provided by our respective universities ( ours being a flagship......just kidding ) and using the numbers in the report in question, it would indicate that student fees going to athletics is roughly $190 at SDSU and $160 at USD per student. That would mean your students are paying nearly ( but not quite ) 20% more.

The bottom line is I don’t care where you get your money from. If you utilize it to build a quality program then more power to you.

Lets be honest though, the real reason we get so salty about the student fees thing is because of how we were treated when we went DI vs you guys when it comes to things like student fees. I also really enjoy the banter with both our rivals, ndsu fans just tolerate me better. Well, some do

You're using total enrollment in the calculation for those numbers. Look at the degree seeking/ full time numbers for both universities, and you'll see the difference. Degree seeking undergrads are the primary sources of fees, with a higher credit load, and much larger enrollment. USD has 6100 of those. SDSU has 9700. That's where the difference lies. As was cited earlier, the general activity fee at SDSU is also lower. I don't know what percentage of each fee at each school goes to athletics.

The USA today report combines student fees and university funds allocated to the athletic departments.

Re: FearEd no more

I would think someone from the school that thumps their chest about the business school would figure this out. We have way more students. We charge less in student fees per student. So we end up with a bigger dollar amount. What we are mocking is the fact that your athletic department is subsidized at a 60ish% clip by your students and university funds, while ours is one of the lowest percentages in the country at 36%.

Re: FearEd no more

Want to have a discussion on student fees? One school had $2.4M and the other $1.6M. You would think by your comment we had more. Nope. You have 50% more in student fees.

Re: FearEd no more

And who gives a Fck. Who is a bigger university now? The big dance? Do you even know about it? Semis of playoffs? Congrats on a win....

They're basing it on when school was founded/established rather than enrollment, which seems fairly common. Personally I'm a fan because the "sinking flagship" memes after sports contests almost write themselves.
