Great pics, our campus is one giant construction site

-Business building
-Union
-Seaton Hall
-IIIB
-Foundation Building/Research Park
-NBAF
-Women's Soccer field

Anything else :dunno:

And we just finished the Engineering Building

The college of Ag is working with architects for a new building.

Any rumors on where they want to build?

I should reclarify, Entomology is moving and Ag will take over Entomology office space. I'm not sure if that means other departments, like Sociology, would move with Entomology. Also not sure if they're constructing a new building or moving into a different one (Calvin, perhaps).

Regents approve $43.2 million for a new vet facility, next up ks leg approval.  Luckily they saved all that money by axing all KU plans, so it should be pretty easy. Animal says CVM funds and  :kstategrad: .

K-State continues to pursue each new building and project on an individual case basis, rather then trying to bundle (what is really a BGL legacy saving effort) projects into a single mass project that will actually have various components fall under the purview of different operating units of the university once they're completed, like KU has tried to do.   

Outside of the boutique basketball dorm that KU athletics tried to get KU housing to finance for them.    KU wasn't rejected for a thing, particularly on this new project they are doing that was financed via Wisconsin.    The legislature just had questions, and any legislature is going to have questions when a state agency wants to increase its debt load by 76% with the stroke of a pen.    This lunacy from Butthurtistan is pure comedy as it was a rush job, because the clock is ticking for BGL and her perfectly pedestrian legacy at KU.

Some good stuff on this page about how the Central Water Cooling project is going to change the face of pedestrian and auto traffic on campus.

Architects have presented the College of Ag with rendos for an addition connecting Weber and Call Hall, a large new building in the parking lot north of Waters, and a new building and/or addition to Throckmorton which would require the demolition of Dykstra Hall. They will either do one or two of the three options. The College of Ag cited that the expansion they need for the college would cost $500 million. Also, apparently about 20% of current office space isn't even suited to be renovated and will/should be destroyed.

They are in the very early stages of this. Really just feeling things out so it'll at least be 2-3 years before they break ground, imo.

Sounds like a lot of money, but... :kstategrad:

It's a shame we did so many f-ing buildings on the cheap years ago.  That is part of the reason why I like Currie and The Animal.  McCain presidency forward to the CEO wouldn't get this crap done.
