I would love to see NDSU develop a Continuing Education/Extension campus downtown. ASU has one of these that serves the community by providing classes where people can walk to them (near the bus station and parking). It would open up the downtown and NDSU in beneficial ways. People working downtown (many who may already be in school) would have a convenient way to take classes during a work day without going home, and employers could even partner with the University to fill classes relevant to their workplace training needs. It might even be an incentive to relocate to downtown.
