Do you have an updated campus size for UA, or is 1,000 acres the current figure?



I don't think that the 168 acres that Bryce sits on is factored into that figure.

As I recall LSU owns land on the other side of the Mississippi River which we still haven't built on

Deliberately didn't include that in the figures, since no student has any reason to go there. just interested in the main contiguous campus size, the part where every student, regardless of major, has occasion to visit.

Thanks. For some reason, I was expecting a much higher figure.

Thanks! As I said in the other thread about Bryce, that main building is going to be a fantastic addition to the UA campus when they finish renovations.

Thanks. You gotta pick your topics, and not give anyone anything to argue about.

It's like Murphy's Law, SEC Rant style: if they can argue about something, they will argue about it.

I can't imagine the Arkansas campus being 6 times larger. If it was even 2-3 times as big nothing would be in walking distance considering the hills.

Two? Isn't Auburn an Ag school as well?

And I'm not including LSU's satellite campus and research facilities in these figures. This is the main campus only, from the Mississippi River to the LSU Lakes, North Gate to South Gate.

It would be time to hit up Wal-Mart for a monorail like Virginia Tech has. Or is that West Virginia? I forget.
