Unprecedented student enrollment and transformational campus construction reflect growth in the state's flagship campus in recent years. It came about because The University of Arkansas is routinely recognized nationally as a best value, balancing excellence and expense. We've worked hard to earn our place as one of U.S. News & World Report’s Top 10 “Up and Coming” universities. Let us share our great news with you through this new publication, Transforming the Flagship, which catalogs the tremendous success and progress of the University of Arkansas in recent years.

I thought this was about not trolling the masses or something.

We need a Flagship Transformer that turns from a Razorback into an aircraft carrier.

That pdf states their endowment goal is 2.1 Billion by 2021. That's 7 years.

They must know of some big Walton funds coming or something. That would be a really respectable endowment.

We'd only be behind TAMU and Vandy in the SEC if other schools don't grow at a similar rate.

Just talked to vice chancellor for facilities yesterday about whats in the works

Redo mullins, remove stacks and make more student study area + coffee shop

Interior renovation of Memorial Hall ibcluding tearing out mezannine to restore original ballroom as a classroom. Also install original light fixtures and chandaileers

$18m addition of another wing to John White Engineering Hall

New entrances to campus at all entry points - "thresholds" in UA speak

Widening of razorback road will begin this summer (actually utility relocates are underway now) to Leroy pond. Next is maple from garland to razorback. This will put pressure on everyone to complete the part by the stadium which will be very difficult to construct and very expensive. Huge retaining walls are required and that part alone will cost $6 million
