Outside of downtown, the benefit of the sharrow (bikes can use full lane zone) ends and suddenly you're on a narrow street with parked cars and congestion. To get to NDSU, this strip of road up to at least 19th ave north should be striped for bike lanes...

Here's a good example of how one community is advocating for bike lanes: http://seeclickfix.com/issues/8658
Getting some "watch areas" set up for your neighbors in Fargo ensures that more people will see this. Check out how many "watch areas" there are on the above ticket!
It's all about a community building, legislative, media and advocacy strategy.
Email the folks at SCF if you'd like any guidance.

"The principal trend that emerges from the papers reviewed here is that clearly-marked, bike-specific facilities (i.e. cycle tracks at roundabouts, bike routes, bike lanes, and bike paths) were consistently shown to provide improved safety for cyclists compared to on-road cycling with traffic or off-road with pedestrians and other users. Marked bike lanes and bike routes were found to reduce injury or crash rates by about half compared to unmodified roadways."
