A bunch of construction projects are phased sequentially and he’s hitting pause on a huge piece of that complex puzzle. This could make the building cost more because it could be built later.

Plenty aware of the other workspaces that can be utilized in MU's place (Columbia Hall, Law School, CFL, most other buildings)...throwing a complete halt on the project seems unnecessary. $336/yr means a lot more to college students and their parents than it does us alumni and/or community members, but there's a reason the vote happened AND passed.

SiouxVolley Posted July 10, 2019 Share Posted July 10, 2019 Interesting to see how a smaller private university, High Point, is now embarking on $200 million in building projects, including a new basketball arena. High Point U moved up to DI in 1999, doesn’t have much endowment and has borrowed a lot, and they have more than tripled their enrollment to now over 5000 with students mostly coming from the northeast. The town of High Point is one of the three cities of the Piedmont triad of Winston-Salem -Greensboro - High Point. High Point U seeks to be a high end residence for wealthier students. https://groundbreakcarolinas.com/high-point-university-growth-continues-with-200-million-in-construction-projects/ Elon is comparable and 20 minutes away also recruits the northeast and Campbell U, a Baptist University, only with more growth outside Raleigh-Durham-Chapel Hill.

Two questions: When will High Point move up to FBS and will they be joining the new WAC with the Dakota and Montana schools?! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UNDBIZ Posted July 10, 2019 Share Posted July 10, 2019 His name will be associated with the project if it goes bad, so I can understand him wanting to know what is going on. The timing is certainly unfortunate though. If he eliminates the auditorium and saves $5 million, will anyone complain? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kab Posted July 12, 2019 Share Posted July 12, 2019 This project is 70 to 80 million $ the legacy fund is averaging $50.5 million per month deposits this year so the project is about 1 1/2 months deposits. why can’t state or local agencies borrow from this fund and pay 1% interest. You would think this would be in the best interest of all of North Dakota . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
