Sharon Neet, D.A., joined the University of Minnesota Crookston in the late 1990s, “just when UMC was shifting from a two-year to a four-year institution,” said Sharon Neet, D.A., UMN Crookston history professor, Humanities, Social Sciences, and Education department. “I taught three years at Marymount College, a year at Cottey College (Missouri), and six years at Valley City State in North Dakota. I also taught the secondary social science method classes and supervised student teachers.” Neet came to UMN Crookston for a couple of reasons, better pay and benefits. Crookston was getting ready to develop four-year degrees and she had the experience needed at that level. “When I came, I was the only woman teaching that had a doctorate. I had tenure at Valley City so I came to UMC with rank and years toward tenure.”

More changes could be coming to the University of North Dakota footprint. The Grand Forks Planning and Zoning Commission gave preliminary approval last night (Wednesday) to a series of moves calling for the renovation and removal of several campus dorms.
In one request UND wants to demo McVey and West Halls in favor of two new buildings near Stanford and University Avenue. Interim City Planner Ryan Brooks says it’s part of a facelift for the freshman dorm area.
Brooks says the new buildings would be closer to the roadway. “It kind of defines the area with an open space in the middle. Maybe make it so the outdoor space is more usable for events in the quad area.”
