I plan on leaving my estate to the university to update and expand the men's and women's restrooms at the University, but only if they put my name on them. I think it would be a fitting end to my life to have my name grace the facilities where so many people feel really good about going to relieve themselves.

You could have your name engraved in each toilet and urinal and be showered with praise.
 
King Richard declares that because Prince John has brought shame to his name, "From this day forth, all the toilets in the kingdom shall be known as... Johns!".

I had a good friend who wanted his ashes flushed down the toilet at his favorite bar. Left instructions with his two best friends. They refuse to disclose whether they fulfilled his wish.

You're saying they get more from the state than UM does?

On the other hand - if a project is $110,000,000 announcing it to get a bunch of $500 donations isn't going to help much, and if it takes too long to fundraise the cost to do the project is most likely going to be way higher. You need those first few big "anchor" donors to really set a timeline.

If I recall there was a Big Sky school that announced a major new plan without any real backing to it (maybe Idaho State 15 years ago or so) and then were completely lambasted for making such a major announcement and then never actually getting it off the ground.

Bobcat Athletics Facilities Master Plan 2025 - Montana State University Athletics

I get both sides of the argument but without a feasibility study does anybody know what the true cost are for renovations/updating the football stadium and/or UM having a master athletics plan. Above is the master plan for MSU, they don't have a problem letting donors/alumni know what their goals are.

If more people knew about the projects you might be surprised on how fast they could get completed.

the bobs stadium plans are a little odd. if i'm seeing everything correctly, they plan to put enclosed suites or club seating directly under the screen? seems kinda weird, er, wierd, when the whole stadium is watching a replay on the screen, they'd also be looking directly at people behind the 'club' windows, because they are so close together. maybe the plan is to raise the screen higher than the picture, i suppose.

Good catch. Also, and equally baffling, is their plan to build new ExNE bleachers that STILL WILL NOT connect to nor match the modular-looking end zone stands in any way. Maybe it’s just me, but that makes it all look separate and really poorly engineered.

Exactly. Imagine what their current coordinators will make once they rack up an arrest or two! MSU set its own precedent: Get a DUI, get a raise.

A lot of precedent on this kind of stuff over there. I mean, think Waded. She collected DOE investigations the way great grandma Gertrude collects cheap teacups, yet they kept rewarding her with enormous salary increases.

It's almost as if winning is all they care about.

Makes one question her unexpected announcement about “retiring to spend time with family”, then taking another job shortly afterwards🤔
