with the change in tax laws many will not be able to use charitable contributions due to the doubling of standard deduction(s) and congress has changed the rules in regards to the 80% of team makers dues that is deemed a deduction for 2018.

With that said, I read on Any Given Saturday NDSU or Team makers is allowing you to pre pay 2018 dues to get the deduction in 2017. Someone noted that Oklahoma is allowing 3 year pre pay. I don't believe you technically would get the deduction, but that is OU's issue, should not be an issue for a one year deduction at NDSU.

Something to consider.
