BURNSVILLE, Minn. – Northern Sun Intercollegiate Conference Commissioner Erin Lind announced that the league has renewed a corporate partnership with RDG Planning & Design. RDG has been a proud partner of the league since 2016, providing support to the 15 member institutions in more ways than just basic design features as they truly enhance the student-athlete experience in all spaces of a facility.

“The NSIC is excited to continue its long-standing partnership with RDG Planning & Design. We share many of the same values that support the development and experience of student-athletes. A key to our relationship is RDG's understanding of our institutions and adapting to their needs. We are proud to partner with such a great forward-thinking organization.”
— Erin Lind, Commissioner | NSIC

"Like the NSIC, we share a steadfast commitment to empowering young athletes and elevating the institutions that support them. By thoughtfully designing top-tier environments, we help propel student-athletes forward and eliminate barriers to their achievements. We are proud to once again sponsor NSIC and their endeavor to cultivate excellence in academics, community involvement and beyond."

About NCAA Division II
The NCAA, the national governing body for college athletics, is a volunteer association of more than 1,000 colleges and universities that classify their athletics programs in one of three membership divisions. The 300+ institutions in NCAA Division II support a balanced approach in which student-athletes can earn scholarships based on their athletic ability, pursue their desired academic degree, and participate in all the campus and surrounding community have to offer. Division II student-athletes annually graduate at rates higher than their student body peers, and they have access to the best championships-participant ratio among the NCAA’s three divisions. Division II gives student-athletes the unique opportunity to compete in the classroom, on the field, in their career, for their causes, and on their terms. For additional information, visit NCAA.org.
