105 Scholarships
You’re on to it but it’s the opposite: donors have long been asked to endow scholarships offsetting athletic department costs. More difficult now with significant revenue, but helps ensure programming is funded in perpetuity. -

Toyota Rav-4 hybrid or Honda CR-V hybrid?
I learned the CRVs since 2014 run hot on oil and can lead to burning out the engine before when a synthetic oil change (7,500 miles) is due. Still a good vehicle with resale far above Chevy and GMC. -

Getting rid of popcorn ceilings
My wife did our entire upper floor before kids while I was out of town because I didn’t see the value in the commitment. Wish we did it all now, but I’m not sure it’s something that adds value to the sale of a home. -

New Jack Trice Endowed Scholarship
Because while you are correct in the modest and conservative investment strategy, you are incorrect. $50K is the minimum to create an endowed fund. The rule of thumb is 5% of the corpus is dispersed annually. A $100K endowed fund would disperse $5K annually, and so on. -

IOWA STATE TO BIG TEN?!? Dave Wannstedt thinks so.
The campaign was comprehensive, meaning the $1.5B total includes annual giving. The total also includes planned gifts. Higher-ed typically utilizes a 5 year pledge period.

ISU vet offers to give away his business to attract new vet
Faribault County is a long ways from Faribault in many ways. I find it surprising a county with strong ag does not have other vet options, but southern Minnesota is all about crops and little for livestock.- FatNTired

Eastern Iowa Beer Tiers
I’ll simply add commentary to those I’ve been to: Lion’s Bridge: great location and patio; beer borders on fine-to-good Pulpit: the most exploratory beers in Iowa and a dive feel — my favorite Iowa Brewing: a place that serves their own beer and is near me TG: love the beer, the new spot is... -
