FEDERAL HIGHER EDUCATION FUNDING: UND nets $5 million
EERC, Native American programs will benefit

Some UND research and Native American programs will get a $5 million boost thanks to legislation signed into law by President Bush Monday.

The interior appropriations bill includes $4.1 million for the school's Energy and Environmental Research Center (EERC) and another $1.7 million for two Native American scholarship programs at UND. According to North Dakota Sen. Byron Dorgan, securing the funding didn't come without a fight.

"The (Bush) administration left it out of the appropriations bill for reasons that are inexplicable," Dorgan said. "There were a few nervous moments, but we found a way to get the money written back in."
