  1. It doesn’t necessarily TAKE anything off the table…but it doesn’t really BRING anything either. Maybe if it were as green as the one there at Oxford…

    Keep in mind that when Olmsted first offered his proposal for the campus design, he envisioned buildings rolling across a sheep pasture. So this is channeling history a bit, too. And if the aesthetics can be debated, but there are financial and environmental benefits, I see it as a net gain.

    (Outhouses, however, would presumably end up costing the University more due to all of the public health issues it invites.)

    I do agree that restructuring the business programs at Cornell will provide us with a lot more financial benefits. It’s not exactly low-hanging fruit though.
