Probably overlooked some stuff but biggest thing I noticed for UAB sports is final budget approval for the new soccer field.

I feel sorry for Huntsville.

Election of Board of Trustees Representative to the UAB
Health System Board of Directors

Just noticed because of a tweet: Watts, Witt, a UAB faculty rep, and a UAB student rep are slated to speak. That can't be usual.

Edit: They just used the template from the last meeting. It has been updated to show reps from UAH will be speaking.

Here's the updated agenda.

But Witt will still be there. The "elitist few" should hear from the "vocal minority".

Big chunks of change for neuroscience... I doubt we'll see those dollars again if Watts is fired.

Will there be any toilets provided with the discharge pipes directed over the trustee's heads? If so count me in along with a Jumbo Value Meal from Taco Bell on the drive up.

I'm surprised they haven't tried to construct anything on the Temple Mount.

How does uah have school/system funded frat houses and uab doesn't?

I don't want frat houses at UAB.

Why not ? I don't care either way, I'm just curious.

Early last decade UAH's President stated to UAH supporters that campus life was weak for a number of reasons, including a lack of on-campus Greek housing. He began a fund-raising drive that over a couple years raised half of the $5 million needed to construct the housing. With that money specifically contributed for "Special Student Housing," i.e., Greek Housing, the UA BoT was faced with allowing the school to bond the rest of the amount and proceed with the construction or return the money to its donors.

The Greek Housing at UAH is university owned. Each chapter is required to keep the 10 beds in each house rented plus pay a $500/month rent for the common space of the house. Each chapter was also required to raise about $30 K for a house bond and had to furnish the house themselves.

This setup is similar to what in '98/'99 went on at USA and later in 2010/11 at Troy for its on-campus Greek Housing.
