James: Are you kidding? It is ok to waste money because there is a lot of it? It is ok to freeze enrollment at 1,800 and buy "buffer" lands? Who is being buffered from whom? Why do students needs a buffer from potential single family homes of 1 acre lots in a beautiful setting. This was a help your friends deal and a complete waste of valuable resources. How can a trustee end up dumping $17 million in a golf course that is worth less than half that? So was Pumpkin World a buffer for the buffer? Why not buy up buffer land along around the entire campus for a billion dollars if buffers are so important. Did you read that the actual appraisal was $4.5 million even back then so it is much lower now apparently?— glennb- Is the golf course tax exempt? That would be problematic.— Piers
