There are not too many colleges that are not liberal. Hillsdale comes to mind and Liberty that are not liberal, but most of the others. NRA Life Endowment member Tri-State Gun collectors Life Member | |||

http://www.dailywire.com/news/...k-berrien#exit-modal donations to its athletics department dropped 72% last year. Now the University of Missouri is attempting to recoup some of its massive losses by renting dorm rooms to football weekend visitors. As The Columbia Tribune reports, “The university has closed seven residence halls with 1,461 beds. During the UM Board of Curators meeting Thursday, MU Vice Chancellor for Operations Gary Ward said a website is available for people to reserve two-bedroom, four-bed suites for $120 a night.” Ward told the Tribune that he didn’t think local hotels would mind, asserting, “My understanding, and this would have to be verified with them, is the hotels are full anyway, so we won’t be competing on game days. We could be competing with out-of-town hotels.” | |||

Maybe the university can rent housing to refugees

I guess they now have a firsthand lesson in the true reality of a capitalist society. If you are "selling" a product that only you like, no one will buy it. Ken | |||

Meanwhile at Missouri State, they're building new dorms and big enrollment increases. Love it. Go Bears. | |||

If their athletics donations dropped 72%, I wonder just how many will come from out of town, rent dorm rooms, to attend their football games?? "Liberty lies in the hearts of men and women.

Yep, and... The actual profit from this could end up a negative. Administration cost, Cleaning crews etc. Also they may not meet codes for that purpose and on and on. And what about repairing damage done by a bunch of drunken sports fans? Then there is the mixing of the general public on campus and the disruption that brings. IDK, sounds like a bad idea to me... ...they should go for it! Collecting dust. | |||

Given their recent track record on making correct decisions, you might be right.  "Liberty lies in the hearts of men and women.

And the good news is all those liberal garbage spewing professors will be able to get new jobs without having to leave the state | |||

Every university has "liberal garbage spewing professor's" for sure. The difference is, MSU professors are not leading the Cavalry charge. | |||

Oh, you misjudge the football fans. They'd probably get lots of them. Like dozens. Unhappy ammo seeker | |||
