RYAN BAKKEN: Say it ain’t so, Joe
Critics of NDSU President Joe Chapman’s spending have driven him to resign. I hope they’re happy. They call it extravagance. I wonder what all the fuss is about. His house goes 125 percent over budget. So what? His office undergoes a $238,000 makeover. Chicken feed. His wife rakes in $50,000 for attending meetings? Big deal. He spends $260,000 in the past year from his slush — excuse me, discretionary — fund. Hey, all executives get perks.

RYAN BAKKEN: Dealing with the end of the Sioux nickname isn’t easy
I’ve long envied people who see matters in black-and-white. That ability must be soothing as it eliminates internal debates and simplifies life. Alas, I see everything in gray. There are dark grays, light grays and charcoal, but they’re all grays. It makes my life complicated and uncomfortable.
