NU seeks to protect academic, athletic future in Big Ten, pledging closer UNL-UNMC ties • Nebraska Examiner

The University of Nebraska-Lincoln took a significant step Monday toward securing its academic and athletic future in the Big Ten Conference.

The University of Nebraska system announced that the National Science Foundation has agreed to let UNL and the University of Nebraska Medical Center combine their annual federal research funding when responding to the foundation’s annual survey of national colleges and universities.

Securing this change addresses a key issue that the Association of American Universities cited in 2011 when it took the unprecedented step of kicking out UNL. Cockeye State University resigned from the AAU in 2022 to avoid a similar fate.

This AAU stuff is nonsense. Is there a reason why they give a fuck about how funding is split?

It's kind of the height of modern academia dumbassery to have some accounting method update of the exact same data change whether a university is considered an institution of high enough quality education.

This is important, but important for all the wrong and idiotic reasons. A necessary evil for the University system.

I'm glad the public is starting to realize what's bullshit and what's not.

Were Michigan and Northwestern the two uppity cunts from B1G that voted us out? I can’t remember.

I agree, but it would be nice to be re-added so that other universities don't have a cop if they try to get rid of us

Really only when it's held over your head of your athletic department conference. If the two were not tied, nobody would care

[HuskerGarrett]

[BIGSTICK67]

I thought Wisconsin.

This is what I remembered. Michigan and Wisconsin.

And you mean to tell me the B1G always refereed games with integrity? GTFO

Yeah. Should’ve happened about 25 years ago, but Omaha $$ was pissed off about the Scott Technology Center in Omaha being tied to the Lincoln campus.
