From the UMD beat writer's blog in the Duluth News Tribune:

"...from Brad Elliott Schlossman of the Grand Forks Herald: Ralph  
Engelstad Arena general manager Jody Hodgson says that if he gets his  
wish, the arena will not be changing anything, despite the State  
Board of Higher Education's ruling that North Dakota change its  
nickname and logo. Engelstad Arena is not part of the settlement with  
the NCAA and it is privately owned. The NCAA may not grant Englestad  
a regional if the logos stay, although Hodgson says he doesn't really  
care."
