This was in my electronic mailbox when I returned home today from Paul
Allan, the SID at Mankato State. I've written him back asking 2 questions:
1 - Is there a timetable for moving up?
2 - Have there been any discussions with conferences?

>his decision to recommend that the University take the steps
>necessary to move the men's ice hockey program to a Division I level.
> President Rush will now bring the proposal to go Division I before
>the MnSCU Board of Trustees on Wednesday, Dec. 20, for approval.
> "After due consideration and analysis of University concerns and all
>other information available to me as provided by our campus
>community and the Administrative Team, I have made the decision
