It's College of Business:
"Today, I’m pleased to share that, once again, benefactors are stepping forward with their belief and confidence in NDSU. Today we will gather in Richard H. Barry Hall to celebrate the naming – and launch – of a new interdisciplinary research institute, the Sheila and Robert Challey Institute for Global Innovation and Growth. With initial funding of more than $30 million coming entirely through philanthropic support, the institute’s mission will galvanize the university’s relevance on the global stage in areas of economic growth, trade and innovation and how these areas advance human potential.
The Challey Institute will support the hiring of 15 tenure-track/tenured faculty members, more than 20 doctoral and master’s seeking students annually, and numerous other programs and activities focused on advancing the institute’s mission. Over time, we will pursue a goal of raising $50 million in private gifts to support the institute."
this $50 mill could go towards the $200 million 42,000 seat outdoor semi enclosed stadium!!

NDSU TO FBS. HAVEN'T WE WON ENOUGH?

Scrooge-"And the Union workhouses." . "Are they still in operation?". "Both very busy, sir..."
"Those who are badly off must go there."
"Many can't go there; and many would rather die."
Scrooge- "If they would rather die," "they had better do it, and decrease the surplus population."
It means we get stable funding for 15 professors and 20 grad students independent of funding from the fickle State of ND Legislature. Provides a lot of flexibility for the University to do research and expand class offerings not just in the College of Business, but University wide. This ground breaking type of ciriculum will boost both enrollment and University prestige. Expect more to follow.

It is characteristic of the unlearned that they are forever proposing something which is old, and because it has recently come to their own attention, supposing it to be new.
