I can't believe we are spending $18M on Tennis...a non-revenue generating sport instead of investing in the sport that brings us money and national recognition!

Suspect that $18M was rolled into the cost of the new residential complex as the tennis facilities had to be moved to make room for the residential complex and associated parking garage.
SMU's first president, Robert S. Hyer, selected Harvard Crimson and Yale Blue as SMU's colors to symbolize SMU's high academic standards. We are one of the few Universities to have school colors with real meaning...and we just blow them off.

We have had one here in St. Louis for about 50 years. It's called the "Climatron" and it's located at Shaw's Botanical Garden. It's a glass domed structure designed by R. Buckminster Fuller that takes up about an acre of ground , and is about 120 ft. tall. But, I believe its light are in the wrong position !
