I see what you did there:rofl:
Re: NDSU Capital Building Requests 2013-2015
I don't think I like the leading location candidate for the STEM building. They want to put it just south of Churchill Hall along University. One thing I do like about the project is that they plan to demo that little former health building between Ceres and Dinan. Another tidbit about the project is they basically say don't bother funding the Ladd/Dunbar renovation if you don't give us the STEM building. They can't afford to shut down any of the science classrooms and labs in Ladd/Dunbar for renovation until new space is created. If the STEM building is approved, it will house all of the teaching labs and Ladd/Dunbar will become a pure research facility. If you want to read some scary stuff, check out the comments about Harris Hall. I'm sure it's a bit exaggerated in an attempt to get funding, but if even half of it were true, I wouldn't want to work there.

This pretty much sums up my face over the next few months as a former denizen of the Ladd chemistry labs:

I see UND is requesting 19.5 million to be reapproved for an indoor football practice facility. I think its non state. Also NDSCS and Valley City State want some new sports facilities too.
Re: NDSU Capital Building Requests 2013-2015
If the context were removed from the Harris Hall description, I wouldn't have been able to tell that it wasn't talking about facilities in India and China that I have to deal with in my job.

Correct. That's the section of the agenda where the board has to approve construction on State property but the money is coming from private (non-State) funds.

It said it was approved 4 years ago. Why are they approving it again?

Because construction hasn't started. The same thing happened with the BSA project over the past couple of bienniums.
