What happened?

Nnimap is a Gnus backend so the proper thing is to add a virtual
server to `gnus-secondary-select-methods' (or perhaps
`gnus-select-method') if you want to use it, like Kai described, I
don't think simply setting `nnimap-address' to something would give
the desired effect.

Any error messages in the *Messages* buffer?

That should probably be something like

(imap-open "imap-g.nd.edu" 143 'network 'login)
