Donald Trump Jr. To Be Part Of Kuehne Series

[SteaminWillieBeamin]

I don't know how this can be advertised as not costing UNT money. The contract clearly states UNT is paying his travel, accommodations, and $100k

Nope...private funds. You do realize that those private funds go into UNT accounts which are then used to pay event expenses, right? No university funds utilized.

And, on another note, Kelley Reese, UNT spokesman, has noted that the series has generated $1.65 million for UNT scholarships already.

I wonder how much those whining about this series and falsely stating UNT funds are being utilized (by the way...Brit Ryan, BOR Chairman is pitching in $100,000 for this one) have donated for scholarships at UNT in the few years this speaker series has been in existence? Five UNT students will benefit THIS Year after being awarded scholarships from this series proceeds.

It is a speaker series people! Stop trying to make it into something it is not!  Come, don't come, buy a table, don't buy a table, but whatever you choose to do, at least get the facts straight before bitching about something.
