On the rent.......is this privately owned?  A discount would be nice but it's a lot to ask individuals/partners to give up $19,200/year in revenue when the reality is they are likely operating near break-even given the high cost of construction the past 3-4 years. 

You sound like you might have experience with this? :D

Let's just say there were 3 partners on this endeavor. Could all 3 partners afford to subsidize $500 a month each for the sake of the cause and charge $100 rent?

I don't know the answer.

But if I could afford to do it in that position, I would. I think you would too.

As always, easy for me to say without being in that position.

Two things regarding the 1883 collective that need to be addressed:

First...It is an absolute administrative embarrassment and disgrace that UND is charging the 1883 Collective 25k a year to basically raise money for UND athletics only because they are doing it in the name of the University. 

Armacost, Chaves and whomever else need to be held accountable for this. It's unnecessary overhead that needs to be resolved to be more financially efficient. 

If anybody wants to b*tch about something important....this is it. Calls and emails. This is unacceptable.

Second ...rent for the 1883 collective unit in Memorial Village. $1600 a month. Do the math. That's money that could be spent on athletes. Hoping the building owners can help out with that and do better for the cause.

 

do all nil's have an office space of some sort?

Why would she want all this money to go to UND from the Collective? I think she is contributing to it. Why would she want her money going to anyone but the athletes?

not sure of her motivations but since she's taken over the trust it seems one sided and sometimes vindictive....

I am not a fan of KEM, but this doesn't sound like it's coming from her. It sounds more like UND is skimming off the top of the NIL collective, which is pure stupidity.

I am not sure if this is apples to apples as I don't fully understand how UND and 1883 collective are tied together but ..... a number of years ago I was involved in raising some money for the UND engineering department.  We were told at that time that UND took 10% off the top of all donations that went through the UND foundation.  Donations that went straight to the engineering department avoided that.

Assume you meant the Foundation takes a 10% cut, not UND.

@UNDBIZ is correct. That's the foundation fee. Which I understand is probably a necessity. I get that. We dealt with that during the Impact Scholarship Campaign during the transition. It was a surprise, but I understand that part of it. Cost of doing business.

So UND is taking $25k without the money flowing through the foundation?   Just because their name is associated with the NIL money raised?

I doubt it because its separate from UND and the collective is called 1883.

Has nothing to do with the foundation. They take their 10% for everything.

The 25k is a separate licensing fee to raise money for UND in the name of UND under their namesake.

Terrible.

"Hey we want to raise money for the University of North Dakota to keep kids here and recruit other kids."

"Ok....please pay us 25k and we're good."

I agree with you on all of this.

However, I do not think REA is involved in skimming off the top of the 1883 collective.

This is just UND being UND.

What a conundrum for him if KEM married Tavis MacMillan.  Oh, maybe not, he would be doubly mad at her because he couldn't marry him!
