Learn about the U's 2010 capital request
The U of M’s 2010 capital investment (bonding) request (PDF) calls for major investments in building repair and preservation, renovation of Folwell Hall, a new physics and nanotechnology center and American Indian Learning Resource Center (Twin Cities and Duluth, respectively), laboratory renovation, and support for a new biological research station at Itasca. Your support will be crucial in helping the U advocate for these projects.
Also, be sure to visit our new "How does the bonding process work?" page to learn the ins and outs of the capital-request year. The U and CCLRTTim Mulcahy, the U's Vice-President for research, appeared in video to outline the U's concerns about the Central Corridor light rail transit (CCLRT) project: "We’ve been working with the light rail project now for a number of months to try to identify adequate solutions that will allow a win-win outcome - protect our research while preserving the opportunity to put the light rail line along Washington Avenue."Visit the U's CCLRT website to see the U's most recent letter to the FTA, a project timeline, an FAQ and more. |
