Breslin Center facility upgrades
This was mentioned in one of the general threads, but we now have more detailed renderings of what the Breslin Center upgrades will look like.
The May 14th meeting of the Construction Junction included a presentation on the upgrades, and says that it is currently in the "Authorization to proceed" stage.
Here are some renderings:

New renderings:
It's also always good to keep in mind how much money a university like Michigan State makes off of football and basketball, MSU athletics had $97 million in revenue in 2013. Successful athletics programs also give the school a lot of good press, help with drawing in (even not-athlete) students and keeping them engaged with (and donating to) the school after graduating. I know you weren't complaining, but a lot of people do complain about these sorts of projects not knowing that college football and basketball are generally profitable enough to pay for the rest of the athletic department, sometimes with money left over. I figured it was worth touching on.
