Does anyone know the story on the new business building? Besides being held up in the committee. Do we think it will be killed completely?

Could this be a way for the board to exert pressure on Dr. Watts to stay the course and kill FB?

Or alternatively, could the board kill the new building at Watts request to keep his hands clean (on that matter). Thereby freeing up more cash for the medical side?

RE: Business School
And if it gets killed, does Collat get his/her/their money back?

RE: Business School
If I had given millions for a B-school and they cancelled it and tried to use the donated funds on the Med school, I'd have someone's scalp.

I figure that anyone who can donate that much money can afford attorneys that would make life a living hell for whoever was behind that idiocy.

The money Collat give was for naming the School of Business the Collat School of Business. The $1 million in pledge money for the new school of business building was from the Medical Properties Trust.
