    I don't agree 100% with everything the administration does, but they are proactive in thinking of the future. What to build there, who knows? In this time of more and more on line classes, banking on the future of brick and mortar better have a plan.

    At least it keeps something possibly undesirable from being located there.
    A great place for the new Hamilton Laboratory School. The existing buildings would be a great place for the Nursing School. A bit off campus but not too bad. Eventually they could build a building at the new quad but for now it would immediately solve the space problem they have now and give them room to grow.

    I forgot about Hamilton.

    I think the bold move for the nursing school is to build it next to the hospital. I know it is out of the way, but it would be a step towards showing the powers that be we're serious on the medical front and have zero interest in being a landlord. Know it is a hugh uphill battle, but we need to pull the trigger first in the medical gunfight. Either we start the discussion or get slapped down like the mutts did trying to take over LSU-S. Work shows more committment than a laughable attempted political coup.

    The north end of Cajundome has bore fruit, but not like many envisioned. Time to start working the area. Don't waste the R-1 status. Does anyone know what goes on at the farm in Cade, if anything?

    If UL acquires the Old Tyme Grocery properties, I want to run the place doing Shrimp PoBoy research.

    Build it next to what hospital? UMC, I guess? That’s a good thought, but we need to save the corner of CD Blvd and Congress open for a new heyman-type building. But I think there would be room for both of those buildings.

    I went ahead and found the property around the Lite building and umc on the assessor’s page. Yeah, that is a pretty big piece of property.

    Well, yeah. But that’s why I asked him which hospital he was referring to. I think he meant UMC, but I’ll let him answer.

    Am I understanding the advocate article correctly? I mean there is the OLOL property, which is where the old hospital was located, but is now mostly vacant, except for the garage that was attached to the hospital. Then there are the MOB’s and attached parking tower that is located along St Mary, and that are owned by the diocese…..and that we are in talks as land-swap, for the property on campus, across from the present OLOW church.

    And then there is the ‘St Joseph’ parking tower on St Joseph/St Landry, across from Martin & Castille, which I assume is owned by OLOL and not the diocese.

    If the article is really about us buying the OLOL property that would be so great….another step towards owning that whole St Landry campus. Hope I’m understanding this correctly.

    Do we really want a medical school? Is that a goal of ours that we are pursuing?
