Great news - now compare what the gf Herald has to say on this. They're saying 32 million for gf. 6 million for und and 32 million for gf airbase. The city of gf will never see that 32 million. All materials and most all contracts are not awarded to gf companies. I think Dorgan puts in a little money for gf so they won't feel bad. When it comes to cutting edge technology/private business relationships und is behind the curve. ;D ;D

They must mean that "larger" engineering school to the north with the tin quonset for a football stadium in the town that our tax money built. Yep, that's und*

Interesting thread, I just found it.

I dont know who und is? *Never heard of them.

On the other hand und* is a small division 2 school in northern North Dakota. Pretty good football teams from time-to-time, at least for DII. *They play Bismark St. Marys and Crookston, or something like that. *

I think they played St. Johns a few years ago. *That must have been exciting for those und* guys!!!! *They traveled over 300 miles round trip by Greyhound Bus!!!! *

UND - $113 MILLION DOLLARS for a STATE OF THE ART and WORLD CLASS athletic complex (The Ralph and the Betty) from ONE ALUMNI!!!

NDSU - scraping for pennies to make the transition to DIVISION ONE (aa) and NO TAKERS for the naming rights to the "BARN" (and very few takers for the LUXURY SUITES at the "barn"!!! You jerks sell those retrofitted lemons yet?? Guess you should have built the place RIGHT the first time...:-)

I THINK this is what NDSU called their CLAIM TO FAME in the '80's...but what have you done since? and now that you're DIVISION ONE (aa)...you've got a lot to prove...get out of the '80's you jerks!! You haven't done anything since and WON'T do anything for ANOTHER DECADE!! That's 30 YEARS between claims to DOMINANCE!!! and not really a dominant force at ALL! Take a breath and realize you're not that special....and do us ALL a favor...

You can have your state of the art ralph, I'll take the 100 million dollar plus defense contracts that are being used by NDSU and Fargo companies to create high paying jobs in Fargo. This 100 million will be turned over in the Fargo economy many times and will continue for many years to come. ;D ;D ;D

Comparing a donation of an athletic stadium to money for research and development... Wow, UND grads and fans really don't understand that DI is more than just athletics, do they?

You can have your bastard stepchild of a DI sport...I'll take an institution that has highly regarded research and programs.

Not to disrupt the license plate talk, but NDSU landed a $8.9MM grant for the Psychology department-http://www.in-forum.com/articles/index.cfm?id=70646&section=Opinion

Looks like Chapman better set a new research expenditures goal. ;D
