The Bentonville Institute of Technology will feature “a modern, flexible, and accessible model that combines STEM education with business, artificial intelligence, and real-world application,” according to a press release.
Will the students take their tests on modified self-checkout machines?

Its not about ROI with this. It would be play money, pocket change for oen of the Walton heirs. They shouild have hired whomever Alice Walton wanted hired. Maybe they will some day.
IF Arkansas ever gets one of the Waltons on board in NIL funding, its game over. Alice looses enough money in her couch cushion to make Ark the top NIL funded school.

Are you retarded? Tyson products are retailed in every single major grocery store across this country and the world. 41% of their product goes direct to consumer. 39% goes to food service. If you’re suggesting they should have a chicken focused restaurant to sell their product you’re even more retarded than I thought.
Look at you getting so bent out of shape because your poor chicken man CHOOSES not to support your horrible program.
That’s where your anger comes from.
Meanwhile our chicken guy didn’t even go to LSU and bought out Brian Kelly while you still have whoever your loser coach is.
Your program is horrible. You sit in an absolute conducive environment for pallets of cash to bestowed upon your program but the smart rich people say, I’d rather support Woke initiatives than support a Sinking ship.
Go be angry. You’re undefeated in that. But your football program has only beaten UNA and Tulsa.
Seriously go frick off, and go bitch at someone else, kiddo.

Haha maybe you should loosen that helmet strap little man. You might as well be flinging your poop around right now.
Keep deflecting but never defending your argument regarding Tyson retail which you thought was so clever and intelligent. The dumbest people truly believe they’re always the smartest

Kudos to the fan for asking the question
I guess.
But, I don't like the expectation that just because someone has made a fortune they are obligated to share a large sum of it over something they may only have a fleeting interest in.
Campbell has money and a strong interest in turning TT around. That is his money and he can do what he wants. But, so can others, and they shouldn't be shamed for steering away from investing in something that returns nothing to them and offers them little control over the direction of the investment.
The man has money because he is smart with it.

But. We’re talking billionaires, not millionaires or multi-millionaires. Most people don’t understand big numbers.
One million seconds is roughly 11.5 DAYS. One billion seconds is 31.7 YEARS.
We don’t know how much of their wealth is cash, cash equivalents or otherwise liquid assets, but a few million dollars a year is insignificant to billionaires.
For those of us that love our state, our home, our university and, yes, football, we would give large chunks of ‘insignificant’ to be competitive. It’s frustrating when real billionaires don’t feel the same way.

Because they are out enjoying things their earned wealth can afford. Football may not be a big interest. And, it certainly doesn't mean he loves his school or state any less than another.
He also likely has other priorities he is contributing to that have more impact than sports.
I don't think the "they are billionaires" part is lost on anyone. But, much like some of the political social nonsense, the mega-rich should be no more obligated or expected to do anything with their wealth other than pay their taxes, which should be a flat rate for all.
Plus, if you invite the foxes into the hen house, don't get mad when they want to eat the chickens. That is what TT is dealing with. No one makes those sums of investments without wanting a controlling interest of some sort.
Part of the protect our sports act would have done well to cap donations of individuals and companies to NIL funds and athletic departments if they truly wanted a more level playing field.
