Sixty degrees, is that you? Well, almost. High temperatures increase steadily Friday through Tuesday, reaching a balmy 59 degrees by next week. No forecasted snow or inclement weather to speak of.

North Dakota State University is the latest in the Fargo-Moorhead area to offer a scholarship program for lower-income students. From the Fargo Forum: “For the 2024-25 academic year, Pell-eligible North Dakota and Minnesota students who are in their first or second year at NDSU, and whose family income level is $80,000 or less, will have base tuition and student fees covered.”

Unlike the Concordia College program, NDSU students would need to demonstrate “great financial need” through a Pell grant.

Punk rock karaoke makes an appearance Friday night at the Elks. The Fargo-Moorhead Vintage Flea Market is Saturday, 12 to 5 p.m. And NDSU plays Illinois Saturday.
