‘The president of North Dakota State University will soon have a chief of staff.

‘The president of North Dakota State University will soon have a chief of staff. . » according to the Forum News Service in the May 15th Grand Forks Herald! This brings a flashback to the great movie made of Rudyard Kipling’s story « The Man Who Would Be King » starring Michael Caine.

One wonders where the money will come from to pay for this « duty reliever? » Will it be from student tuition, student fees, alumni contributions, or heaven forbid the taxpayer? It seems like every time we turn around either the University of North Dakota or NDSU is in the news with some new way to spend money (wherever it comes from) so it will be interesting to see who will come out on top of the next power struggle that is sure to happen with the new chancellor coming on board! If these institutes of « higher education » really can come up with extra money, it sure would be nice if the powers that be would send a refund to the state treasurer instead of creating new positions!

Meanwhile, it would seem all that is needed to round out the « royal court » at NDSU would be a court jester and royal food taster to finish North Dakota’s version of the classic Kipling tale.
