info/event explanation

Bison Bidders Bowl has been part of NDSU's Homecoming since 1982 and is sponsored by the NDSU Development Foundation. The evening features a gourmet dinner, silent auction, live auction and everyone's favorite heads and tails. This dinner and auction brings together a diverse group of alumni and friends representing not only our local area, but also guests from around the nation.

Over the years, Bidders Bowl has contributed over $4.2 million for the benefit of NDSU. Programs supported by this event include student honor and merit scholarships, activities of the NDSU Alumni Association and other priority projects of the University and the Development Foundation. Many of the volunteers have been involved in the Bidders Bowl from its inception and continue to serve on the committees.

Last year, Bison Bidders Bowl raised over $355,000.
