The central campus portion (Coulee to Columbia) is complete and open for a couple months. 

My post was from early October.

It is attached to swanson. They placed live cameras so the public can see construction progress if you fancy that sort of stuff.

biked thru campus the other day...can't tell if they will be traffic stop lights on univeristy or if they will just be flashing lights for pedestrians to cross university...looks to be quite a few between the union and the coulee (they are covered with bags and non-functioning which is why i can't tell what they are)

As someone that never played at UND, would love to see some photos of the interior. Especially the former dorm rooms

I think the most important stuff got buried at the end of this article. 

The new turf will don the Fighting Hawks logo at midfield, the updated Alerus Center logo between the hashes, the distinct “NORTH DAKOTA” wordmark in the end zones, and, of course, the new Missouri Valley Football Conference logo.

Does this mean the ridge in the end zone between the playing surface and concrete will also be removed? Seemed such a safety hazard.

My next wish for Alerus, some type of indoor paint job...I just never have dug the aluminium barn look.

That has always bothered me so hopefully it's taken care of.

Bout fucking time. It only took 4 attempts.

any mockups yet of the turf

The new dormitory that will replace Memorial Stadium has to be majority non athletes per NCAA regs.  Kentucky and Kansas had basketball only dorms (more like five star hotels), but the.NCAA forbid single sport dorms and every dorm must be greater than 51% non athlete.

I was under the impression UND was looking at privately run apartments rather than a new dormitory.

Sounds like some loopholes that could easily be exploited.

Connect them via skywalk? Separate floors?

Perhaps it is.  But UND ideally needs a dorm by the HPC and weightlifting area to help them use the facilities  to the maximum and use athlete food the best.

When D-2 schools have better football facilities then UND...

D-2 Texas A&M Commerce just built this beautiful facility
