It's a headscratcher. But anyway, great that our football players get to practice inside when there's summer lightning.
And every other varsity sport - male and female - when in season as well. Money well invested.

Amazingly, I was in Tribble a few months ago, and they actually have spent some money updating the interior finishes in there. The ROI in alumni donations from all of us pathetic Tribblite humanities kids has got to be dwarfed by the surgeons and what not coming out of the science buildings, plus science actually can get real federal grant dollars. It's a headscratcher. But anyway, great that our football players get to practice inside when there's summer lightning. Can't fall behind FSU on that front.

Yeah, those things were old when we were there PH. I can't imagine what they look like now.
Too bad the other kids aren't building biology and chemistry buildings.
Unfortunately, you really can't write updating facilities into a grant proposal for research. Maybe you can get some new equipment, but not new carpeting.
I'm not sure how I feel about undergrad classes going off-campus, but soon students will have new lab and classroom space downtown in Innovation Quarter. http://oldgoldandblack.com/?p=46549
“An undergraduate presence in Wake Forest Innovation Quarter would add to the growing synergy among the city’s academic institutions, while supporting intellectual collaboration, research opportunities and community engagement,” President Nathan Hatch said.
“Our interest in the Wake Forest Innovation Quarter allows us to explore fully the intersection of arts and science, scholarship and entrepreneurship and tradition and innovation,” he said.
Not true. http://dpcpsi.nih.gov/orip/diic/non_arra
Research Facilities Improvement Program (C06)
Grants are provided through the Research Facilities Improvement Program (RFIP) to expand, remodel, renovate, or alter existing research facilities or construct new biomedical research facilities. These facilities must support basic and/or clinical biomedical and behavioral research, and they may also support biomedical research training. The RFIP awards do not support construction of unfinished shell space; research instrumentation or moveable equipment; land acquisition; or off-site improvements.
The applicant institution must plan, direct, and execute the propose construction project for both of these improvement programs. Facilities and administrative costs or continuation costs are not provided for these construction awards.
Still, I'm guessing most researchers are more focused on basic research funding and hope instead that their institutions will support their infrastructure.

I wonder what Buzz would have looked like with a chemistry set.

Ok. So if I donate money for the Tylerkong sex dungeon, Wake has to build it?
