Reed Stadium renovation project. During a March 29 conference call, the Board of Curators approved a contract for the project based on bids previously received. Following the meeting, an irregularity in the bid process was discovered. To avoid any appearance of impropriety, the university is opting to reopen the process. The request for bids will include an increased scope of work for the project. With the new bidding and the time needed to complete the work, the project completion date is anticipated to be prior to September 9, which will be the home opener for the Lincoln University Blue Tiger Football Team. ### Misty Young Director Office of University Relations Young Hall 301 573-681-6032 youngm@lincolnu.edu<mailto:youngm@lincolnu.edu> www.lincolnu.edu<http://www.lincolnu.edu/> [cid:image001.png@01D2B212.2FC99060]
