The business of the University is the welfare of the state
The inscription chiseled above the stone pillars of Northrop reads, in part, that the University of Minnesota is devoted to the welfare of the state. The Office of Business Relations (OBR) exists to further that commitment by building connections between the global business community and the University's vast network of talent, training, and technology. OBR develops and implements a wide variety of strategies to engage, collaborate, partner, and support business in Minnesota and beyond.
Through the Homeownership Preservation Program, the University District Alliance buys options on properties in University District neighborhoods and purchases the homes when they come up for sale. The plan is designed to protect homes from conversion to rental, and preserve them until owners decide to move or sell. For buyers, while it's not exactly like Publishers Clearing House pulling up to your home with a gigantic check, it is free money.
