Message: [QUOTE="NJCuse97, post: 2109522, member: 5058"] I thought you said the design was done and the steel in fabrication? Why are you down now? SU is no different than almost every institution. The IPF was done on the cheap, less than anyone wanted to acknowledge. That said, Princeton with all their endowment money is looking at a Rutgers/BC style bubble and Yale is being very "efficient" with research labs, but spends thousands per sf on housing. Why? A major reason is donors. Princeton got a $100,000,000 gift and built one of the more extravagant lab buildings I've seen on a college campus because that's what the donor wanted it spent on. That is VERY typical. Everyone keep that in mind before complaining when SU spends more on a new research center or student center. IPF's donor came on after the construction was well underway. That's one reason it was done inexpensively, unlike the Melissa center for example. *Melo Center. Didn't even notice that autocorrect [/QUOTE]
