20 Million Here-50 Million There

Postby Stallion » Tue Jan 15, 2008 7:38 pm

pretty soon you are talking about some real money. Just gave 20 Million to SMU a month ago-apparently we didn't get it all.

They spread their money around. I work in the Simmons Building at UTSW, it's the tallest of the buildings making up the North Campus complex. It never surprises me anymore when I see their name on a plaque in a museum or performing arts center somewhere around Dallas. They arent stingy with their donations.

Where would the new natatorium be located? In place of the current one and the outdoor facility? Does the Perkins family mind SMU replacing the old facility?

It will be in the same location - but I understand it will be turned the other way to face Binkley. We are very close. Just waiting for Water Pony to Pony Up.

I would imagine naming rights have to be limited to the life of a facility for just this reason.
Ok this is getting ridiculous...I agree with Dutch on THIS ONE POST by him totally
