Wow, those concept designs look beautiful. Cant wait to see the campus in 10-15 years.

This is exactly what we need. Now pair this with a full ride scholarship program for top achieving students and we will be on a roll.

Nothing really new here.  This was all talked about as part of the Strategic Plan last Fall.

So how much can we put you down for?

Must have missed that. Sure is purty though.

I misspoke. It was the Campus Master Plan:

Really like the aggressiveness and focus of the administration.  This is a real solid plan.

But will it be enough to land Kostas?

I like the connection of the business school to engineering.  More like typical manufacturing, where projects are cross-functional.

Eh, the rec and wellness center looks doomed to be an eyesore.

Way to shatter the illusion.

At least the business school is in the plans.  The facilities were sub-par a decade ago.

So the Crean donation finally arrived?

That picture looks like it was taken from the Potawatomi Casino, hopefully your winnings will go to MU lol

I mean, its not like McCormick was a looker either. I like the fact that they're not wasting the space. Would like a little more green space if possible but I dont think the building is ugly by any stretch of the imagination.

I wouldnt exactly call Marquette a "pretty" campus in general.

I've been advocating for this for years, and it should include some cross-functional classes. They're starting to get there but it's not nearly enough yet. The sooner MU can break some of the more traditional learning silos the better prepared the students will be for real life.

Agreed, spent my Manufacturing & Quality Engineer portion of my career working hand-in-hand with Design Engineers, Marketing Product Managers & Purchasing Agents.
