It just is amazing as I have gotten older how much faster summer has come and gone.
Planning for semester will be interesting to say the least as Cisco is still rolling out the new material and bridge material and I am
suppose to have a course syllabus ready in a couple of days.
Right now I am skating as fast as I can.

Brian,

I am adding Scott Ebsen to the list of MSCTC administrators interested in working on this problem. Scott has a couple of ideas and contacts that may help.

I wanted to let you know about yet another contact.

So, how are preparations for the new semester going?

Thank you.
I think it is a good conversation to have.
As I mentioned last year when NDSCS president had a meeting at the 
STTC last year and one of his goals is to get ND students to come back 
across the river and attend the Fargo Campus of NDSCS.
I will be at Fargo South this year and only have Fargo students in my courses.
West Fargo has started their own program of Cisco networking and CompTIA A+.
I met with him last spring.
His name is Wayne Werremeyer. I do not have his WF email address but 
once I have I will make contact and encourage him to visit MSCTC. If possible maybe I could bring him to the Fall advisory meeting and do some intros.

Brian,

This is the response I have from Carrie Brimhall.

Tim, thank you for sending this to me.

I will be presenting the concept/idea to the President's Cabinet on 8/29. As you can imagine - it is a sensitive topic to compete directly with NDSCS in North Dakota for students in a PSEO program. In the mean time - I don't want to ignore Brian's interest. Will you respond to Brian and let him know we can get back to him in early September and that we would certainly be willing to set up a meeting with them at that time?

Please let me know if you are comfortable with this approach - or, I can certainly email him as well.

I hope your weekend went well - Happy Monday!

Should we connect Carrie Brimhall with Fargo Schools Technology Director?

Yes summer has gone way to fast. 
Things have not changed she is wondering if it is even possible. So basically it is just gathering information at this time.

Brian,

The summer is going faster than I really want or expected.

I wanted to check and make sure conditions haven't changed. I will forward your request and see what we can do.

In the meantime, we can talk about things we control and do. I do like the idea of visiting.

Tim

I visited with the Fargo schools Technology director this morning 
and she would like me to continue with a dialog to see if it is 
possible for our students to receive college credit through MSCTC 
for the classes I teach. I told her it would be more expensive than NDSCS but I also told her that most of my students go to MSCTC and that it is a better school. That being said she is interested in a dialog even if more expensive to see if it is possible.

Hope you are enjoying your summer

Brian

Brian,

This is the answer I have from my administration about an arrangement. I will check if there are other alternatives.

I really do appreciate you asking.

hi Tim, this gets very complicated because of the North Dakota border.
It isn't impossible - but can get very expensive because ND doesn't have a PSEO program. In other words, in Minnesota, we can charge a smaller amount for concurrent enrollment because the state reimburses both the College for the credits and the high school. In North Dakota, neither of those would occur. How interested is the school in pursuing this option?
We would need a strong financial commitment from the administration in order to proceed. If you think this is a possibility, I would be more than happy to meet with Brian and their administration to see what we can come up with for a proposal.

Let me know what you think.
