You're confusing two different entities. The Engelstad Family foundation is not the "REA Foundation."

Pretty much. UND wants that $800,000 to spend how they see fit instead of the REA spending it on a new roof for the Betty. And why a lot of people fear when UND takes over the complex, as it'll likely fall into disarray like all the other "deferred maintenance" and "scheduled to be demolished" when they look around campus.

What? The REA gave back more than $20,000 in 2016.

To the REA foundation. No money goes to the Engelstad Foundation. The REA uses that money, along with donations, to upgrade the locker rooms, upgrade the scoreboard, build the betty, upgrade the betty, upgrade the ralph, pay its bills, etc. And then what is left over give back to the University.

I'm taking my ball and going home!

The theme is the board of directors at UND/REA is secretly funneling all the profits from the building to the Engelstad Foundation without any of them noticing and them using that money to redonate it later to UND, organizations in Grand Forks, and other places throughout the country!

You obviously don't know what you're talking about. She and her foundation a few months ago gave away another $3 million in Grand Forks.

I wouldn't give money to someone I dislike either. Not groundbreaking stuff.

Here we go away with she's taking home profits from the Ralph Engelstad Arena? Her job, more or less, is to give money away.

Wonder why they never did that then? Same with completing IPF phase two? Same with a new on campus football stadium instead of waiting for the city to build them one (Alerus). All of UND's major sports are playing in a nice facility because someone or something other than the University stepped up to the plate.

So should we be happy or upset the Ralph built UND basketball and volleyball a new facility? As you point out, If UND had owned and operated the Ralph, they couldn't have built the Betty and the basketball teams would likely still be playing in Hyslop. (Which they are going to tear down with all the other buildings scheduled for demolition on the campus?)

Not every year. 100K raise just the first year. Then 3%. It'll end at $450,000 base salary last year of the contract. Wouldn't be surprised if the raise came out of a Engelstad family donation.

Cool to see that Grand Forks has an NHL team. http://www.grandforksherald.com/business/tourism/4444827-allegiant-adds-grand-forks-vegas-flight-jets-playoff-games Go Jets!

Hugos musta said hey we can't keep up with your demand anymore?

Brad Berry thanked her for her help in his new contract. Did Kennedy not only threaten to sue and pull the basketball teams out, but also not give Berry any money for raises?

Where you get this stuff? A board runs it. Just like a Corporation and most have ties to Grand Forks or UND. This board has gone all sorts of crazy! UND profits get funnelled to Engelstad foundation where they get donated to UNLV. UND mens hockey is supporting hockey at UNLV!

"Hey bars (people that helped pay for the event) , would you mind moving the time of your concert til some of your best paying customers are out of town and less people will be there?" "Maybe have it on a Tuesday at 3pm? Thanks."

I too, wouldn't be happy if the President of UND crapped on my deceased father:

Fast? Did you read the article? She stated what her issues are with the President and when they first started. The financial numbers you seek are already posted for you to view.

Winnipeg scores a goal. Refs immediately call a penalty on the Jets.

Her family has recently donated millions to UND and you think she cares about a few more bucks Kennedy wants from the Ralph?

Sounds like Hornbachers is still working on the formula to try and emulate the old Hugos buns. The current product isn't the end product right now.

How long will Kennedy keep paying to maintain Ray Richards before it's turned back into a golf course and make the U money again?

Here's what we know. Members of the Engelstad family have publicly stated they have a strained relationship with President Kennedy.
