MK made few friends at UND and it has more to do with his lack of tact, transparency, and just general leadership than it does budget cuts. People can understand budget cuts. However he did so with the grace of a blind surgeon using a rusty machete who ignored everything his nurses told him. I was in GF that day the Regents voted 5-4 to take MK off UND's hands. Not one person I talked to said......"That's a shame he leaving". 3 Quote

Serious question - She said she was done contributing with Kennedy still there. How did the scoreboard get done? Was it committed before she said that or does she consider Engelstad foundation money a different pot vs what she referred to? 2 Quote

BarnWinterSportsEngelstad Posted June 20, 2019 Posted June 20, 2019 Engelstad Foundation is a big pot, around $800M & growing. That would be the pot she referred to. Maybe she doesn't consider this as giving to UND. Quote

Weren't they looking for $65M to fully endow WIH? That leaves $135M to play with. Welcome back women's hockey. 2 Quote
