Board looks at ways to help law school budget - Sydney Mook, Grand Forks Herald

Amid budget cuts and an unsuccessful dean's search, the State Board of Higher Education is searching for ways to bring extra attention to the UND School of Law during what one board member says is a "very critical" time for the state's only law school. During a recent budget and finance committee meeting, discussions began on how to best help the law school, including the possibility of giving the school its own line item in UND's budget which would allow legislators to see appropriations going to the law school. Board member Dan Traynor was asked to become involved by the State Bar Association because "the lawyers in the state, the judges in the state have significant concerns about" the law school, he said. https://www.grandforksherald.com/news/education/4578877-board-looks-ways-help-law-school-budget
