Minnesota State University Moorhead (MSUM) is a four-year, public university located in Moorhead, Minnesota. The school has an enrollment of 6,624 students and 266 full-time faculty members. MSUM is a part of the Minnesota State Colleges and Universities (MnSCU) system. MSUM is located on the western border of Minnesota on the Red River of the North in Moorhead; across the river lies Fargo, North Dakota.
The plans for what would become MSUM were laid down in 1885, when the Minnesota State Legislature passed a bill declaring the need for a new state normal school in the Red River Valley, with an eye on Moorhead. The State Senator who proposed the bill, State Senator Solomon Comstock, donated 6 acres (2.4 ha) and appropriated the funds that would go to form Moorhead Normal School, which opened in 1888. In 1921, the State authorized the school to offer the four-year Bachelor of Science degree in Education in order to satisfy the need for high school teachers in northwest Minnesota, and the school became Moorhead State Teachers College.
A state university system in the United States is a group of public universities supported by an individual state, or a similar entity such as the District of Columbia. These systems constitute the majority of public-funded universities in the country. Each state supports at least one such system.
State university systems should not be confused with federally funded colleges and universities, at which attendance is limited to military personnel and government employees. Members of foreign militaries and governments also attend some schools. These schools include the United States military academies, Naval Postgraduate School, and military staff colleges.
A state university system normally means a single legal entity and administration, but may consist of several institutions, each with its own identity as a university. Some states—such as California and Texas—support more than one such system.
State universities get subsidies from their states. The amount of the subsidy varies from university to university and state to state, but the effect is to lower tuition costs below that of private universities for students from that state or district. As more and more Americans attend college, and private tuition rates increase well beyond the rate of inflation, admission to state universities is becoming more and more competitive.
Dragon Move-In Day 2015 was a major success, thanks to everyone who helped out! Our hashtag, #DWW2k14, brought the community together on Twitter, and with all the help from SOCs, President Blackhurst, alumni and student volunteers, faculty and staff, move-in day successfully got everyone settled in, ready to begin their year as a Dragon.
At MSUM, we like to have fun. We were nominated by our friends at Winona State University for the #RunningManChallenge, and would like to pass the challenge along to Augustana University.

One of the exhibition bridges I made for the 40th Annual wooden bridge competition. The task was to construct a bridge of wood and bonded by glue that spanned 56 cm. The design for this one was a compound beam/girder bridge. Compound in that each beam had a truss system laminated on both sides. The bridge had a mass of 74.1 g and held 99.8 kg for an efficiency of 1,346. The main goal and design for this one was not max efficiency, but mainly for fun to see how well it could do.
https://toursinvallarta.com/ Spring Break Puerto Vallarta Nuevo Vallarta Mexico 2016 In the United States, Spring Break 2016 at the college and university level can occur from March to April, depending on term dates and holidays such as Holy Week. Many K-12 institutions in the United States schedule a two-week long break known as "Easter Break" or "Easter Holidays", as they take place in Puerto Vallarta the weeks before and after Easter. In many regions, the break in Puerto Vallarta Spring Break 2014 fulfills the function of making up for snow days in January and February. Because instructors are paid during spring break 2014 anyway, school districts do not incur expenses by adding extra days to the school calendar at the end-of-term.

Every time I look at You, You're smiling at me
Every time I walk to You, You're running to me
Every time I lift my hands, You're reaching for me
Even in the eye of the storm I look to You, beloved I'm Yours
All I see is a hurricane
All I feel is an earthquake
When I'm weak, You are stronger now
So I walk on water like it's solid ground
Every time I wander off, You're looking for me
Every time I cry to sleep, You're weeping with me
Every time I get back up, You're dancing with me
Even in the eye of the storm I look to You, beloved I'm Yours
All I see is a hurricane
All I feel is an earthquake
When I'm weak, You are stronger now
So I walk on water like it's solid ground
I walk on water like it's solid ground
No eye has seen, no ear has heard
No mind can understand
All the good that goes to those
Who hold tight to His hand
All I see is a hurricane
All I feel is an earthquake
When I'm weak, You are stronger now
So I walk on water like it's solid ground
All I see is a hurricane
All I feel is an earthquake
When I'm weak, You are stronger now
So I walk on water like it's solid ground
