In a surprise development, the University of Denver announced today that it would be sending its "Diversity Action Team" to Grand Forks this weekend to lend support to DU's hockey team. While most schools send bands or cheerleaders to important athletic events, DU is taking diversity to a whole new level.
University of Denver spokesperson Jim Berscheidt said, "We plan on showing the North Dakota hockey community that building relationships based on kind words and actions can make this a better planet."
He added, "By taking the time and the risk to build genuine connections with North Dakota hockey fans, whom we do not typically interact, we can embrace differences that divide us."

Isn't that special, Jim can give the ND fans a big hug and share some quality time together.
this is the first time I actually hope a UND fan punches a DU "fan" (Jim/Student diversity group) in the mouth.
DU was also going to send its "Up With People" musical troupe to Grand Forks but budget cutbacks forced those plans to be abandoned.
hahaha. Is this supposed to be some meeting of the minds about how NorDak should get rid of their logo too, because it's "offensive" to members of their student body. Coombe just sending his army up there to brainwash another university about a historic logo.
We can only hope Jim comes back from North Dakota with a hockey stick. Stuck in his PC place the sun never shines on.
Wow... I can't believe I'm hoping the North Dakota fans do their weekly sacrifice to "one of our own."
Trust me on this! Jim IS NOT "one of our own".Are we clear on this?
lol... I know that's why I had that in "".
Yeah talk about low-life puppet.
I hope he gets the shit beat out of him. End of story. Never bring a knife to a gun fight...ehhh...I mean never bring a bible to a gun fight...I mean...yeah don't send this ass monkey.
Money well spent.......this coming after the layoffs?lmao
Our respective universities have more than common than differences. Trust us, this is just the beginning of the end. It starts with a mascot and moves on to the nickname. Eventually, any freedom of assembly is taken away. Campus Lounge, consider it gone. signed UND grad
Did some people miss the joke here???
