Correct. The old Med School building (formerly St. Michael's Hospital) will be repurposed; it will house new departments. Older buildings (i.e. approaching 100 year old buildings) around campus will be retired. 

Has anyone contacted the GF fire dept. to get their opinion on how they would handle the aging 100 year old buildings if they caught on fire?

That whole FFD saying "we'd let it burn" about NDSU's chemistry building to me is a bit of a ruse. Honestly, would any FD send in personnel when they don't know what all is in there that could kill them in the process of fighting the fire? That's why buildings (new or old) have chemical cabinets and fire suppression systems. The only reason I could see any FD going in is if they knew there were civilians in the building that could be saved.

Gives the media something to write about and makes people who don't think about it believe a new $45 million building is a necessity.

Rob Port and his allies in the Legislature will more than cover that for us.

The new dorm would be a non-issue during "normal" times, but these are not normal times. The whole state is being asked to cut budgets. I understand that the funding would come crom a different bag of money, but the optics in this are bad coming the day after the FU prez claims he needs new buildings because his current ones are falling down.  It is almost as if he is tone deaf to reality.

As said previously, if you have a fire hazard, install fire sprinkler systems. UND has been installing them over the past few years in residence halls.

Sounds like another Port then: can't earn a higher Ed degree but feels qualified to to criticize the sbohe members and university presidents

Lol. Work to discredit when you don't agree. He's 84, plenty that age who are more than entitled to speak on an issue without a degree.

Pretty sure it doesn't take a college degree to see that there are issues with the SBoHE, NDUS and some of the presidents within it and the relationship of all of them.

Is Bill Gates allowed to criticize American higher education?

If you're implying that those two are a comparable example to Gates then you aren't credible

I think Gates has an honorary doctorate from Havard

That was your only qualification for criticism so they kind of are.

If you use your capacity to decipher you'll see that ignorance was the primary qualification

You don't even know who Andrist is. Talk about ignorance.
