Go Beyond to Support NDMU Students

 

Go Beyond: The Campaign for NDMU is a $45 million campaign to support transformational initiatives at NDMU, including faculty research, student scholarships, and capital improvements to the university’s Knott Science Center and athletics facilities. The campaign's public announcement encourages everyone to support NDMU's mission to educate leaders to transform the world.

As of Nov. 12, the University had already raised $35.4 million, representing 79% of the campaign's total $45 million goal. Faculty and staff joined some of the University’s dedicated supporters and friends to celebrate the campaign milestone that helps NDMU to do even more to support its students.

Faculty Approves Statement on Anti-Racism

After more than a year of gathering opinions, fruitful debate, and revisions, the NDMU faculty approved a statement on anti-racism that supports making the University an antiracist institution by focusing on the roles of faculty. In addition to developing the anti-racism statement, the Faculty Senate's Anti-Racism Task Force, led by Drs. Rachel Burk and Jina Fast, examined NDMU policies, practices, and structures in light of an antiracist critique of the institutional perpetuation of racial injustices and recommended changes.
