| Thanks for the info. I don’t think the school needs the land east of the baseball field. I’m guessing that company played a part in adding the new gas station near the football field on Lincolnway. | ||

| We’ve all been hearing rumors of a potential increase or stabilization in enrollment this year. I’m interested to see how that turns out. Valpo in my opinion probably isn’t considering selling East Ga... | ||

| Should housing really be the number one priority? Alumni and Brandt could stand to be updated, but the other ones appear to be fine. Beacon Hall was build in 2014. Valpo is never going to attract stu... | ||

| I hate to be the "realist" as always. VU72 is correct in saying they must sell Eastgate. Buyers will have leverage, but it must be done. Bonds will kill us. No one refinances a huge loan at a HIGHER i... | ||
