GMU: Where Construction is Tradition

[GSII]

Looks like EBA remains.

I have to look at the master plan but I thought it left room for an athletic village. I think (id have to ask more when I speak to a staff person), that may include a potential arena amongst other things (field house for one). If I recall this was something being looked at for phase 2 of the practice facility. The other option for that may also be to build next to the arena.

this is all off the top of my head and I could have things mixed up. I’ll try and find out.

There is going to be a $1 billion dollar capital campaign initiated soon.

Hilarious. Can't wait.

Actually I don't think it is far fetched. Mason has attracted a lot more corporate donors because its programs feed regional businesses. I lead a practice at my company and we have made it a strategic plan to establish official relationship with the IT and Business Programs at Mason to identify and recruit talent at Mason. We want to get internships set up as well as IR&D projects with classes.

This could be huge.

My son is a freshman at Mason this year living in Tyler Hall, and we spent an afternoon with him walking around the campus recently. The new plaza looks fantastic, but what was even more impressive is Horizon Hall — a beautiful building that just opened this fall.

When my son was there the dorms were ridiculous - private rooms with locks and living/dining rooms and a kitchen.

What is interesting is the new master plan calls for the removal of the original four buildings and opening of that area into a larger quad. It also looks like the old lecture hall is going away.

So, this sounds like a good masonhoops meet up spot before Midnight Madness?

Tom's son's dorm or Oh! George's?

Tough call......

Would GMUTomsSon be willing to setup a couple high-top tables in his dorm room for us?

Fat Tuesday's?

Have they installed the Squid Game court yet?

Wait did Tom’s son get fat all of the sudden and change his name to Tuesday?

I see this on Netflix - but haven't been interested enough in watching. What is the draw?

It's sort of like Running Man or Hunger Games--rich people making poor people kill each other for prize money and their own sick pleasure. If you are into dystopian stuff or Korean things.

I like Korean food - the storyline seems a bit tired

For a switcheroo, how about poor people chasing rich people around?
Uh oh, I think I hear banjo music.

The fun angle is they play childhood playground games like red light, green light
