The University will issue a request for proposals (RFP) next month for residential and retail dining plans in the new Memorial Union and across campus. The goal is to offer food options that attract people to the University, aid in recruitment, and entice more students to live on campus. All options will be considered, including forming a public-private partnership with an external vendor. Photo by Jackie Lorentz/UND Today.

Kennedy said UND supports the State Board of Higher Education proposed budget, which advocates stable funding and merit pay increases. North Dakota Gov. Doug Burgum, however, has recommended a 5 percent budget decrease for higher education, despite major cuts to the University System in the current biennium.
“We do believe that UND and the State of North Dakota are at an inflection point between sinking and swimming,” Kennedy told legislators.
But, by continuing to focus on strategic investments in student success, campus renewal and discovery research, UND is positioning itself to stay above water. Image courtesy of Peter Johnson.
