\u00a0BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) – North Dakota Gov. Jack Dalrymple has directed all state government agencies to fly the American and state flags at half-staff as the country marks the 50th anniversary of the assassination of President John F. Kennedy.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Dalrymple’s proclamation is in accordance with a directive from President Barack Obama. It’s in effect from sunrise to sunset Friday. The governor also is encouraging state residents to fly flags at half-staff at their homes and businesses.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Dalrymple says Kennedy left “an indelible print” on America, and lowering flags honors “his service to this country and his enduring legacy.”<\/p>\n

\u00a0BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) – North Dakota Insurance Commissioner Adam Hamm is asking health insurance companies doing business in the state to renew canceled policies.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Millions of people nationwide who buy their own insurance have gotten cancellation notices because their plans don’t meet requirements of the federal health care law. President Barack Obama earlier this month announced a fix – allowing those customers to keep their existing plans for another year.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Hamm says that isn’t a long-term solution to the issue, but that it might provide a measure of temporary relief to some North Dakotans. He says almost 36,000 state residents have lost or will be losing their health insurance coverage through no fault of their own.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Some industry officials and state insurance commissioners including Hamm warn that renewals could lead to higher prices.<\/p>\n

\u00a0FARGO, N.D. (AP) – State Board of Higher Education members say a proposed plan to improve graduation rates might leave out too many students who could become successful.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The board discussed the so-called Pathways to Student Success plan Thursday at its monthly meeting in Mayville. The plan is scheduled to be fully implemented in 2015.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Figures show that 41 percent of the students who started at North Dakota State University in 2006 and graduated would not be eligible to enroll under the proposed admission index. Thirty-six percent of University of North Dakota students who started in 2006 and received degrees would not be allowed into the school.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 The index is based upon a combination of high school grade point average, core courses and college entrance exam scores.<\/p>\n

\u00a0BISMARCK, N.D. (AP) – North Dakotans trying to get the equivalent of a high school diploma have a few weeks before the testing changes to a computer-based model.

\u00a0WASHINGTON (AP) – North Dakota’s U.S. senators are split on a move by Senate Democrats to change filibuster rules that will now allow for the swift confirmation of some controversial presidential appointments.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Democratic Sen. Heidi Heitkamp said Wednesday that the changes were necessary to end gridlock in the Senate. But she also says she’s saddened it had to be done. Heitkamp says that during her campaign last year, she promised to support changes to rules if they help the Senate work more smoothly.
\n\u00a0
\n\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0 Republican Sen. John Hoeven says Democrats are being shortsighted and trying to distract from problems with the federal health care law. Hoeven says the rules change will make it much harder to do bipartisan work and could endanger key legislation, such as the Farm Bill, that requires bipartisan cooperation.<\/p>\n
