Covid19, people losing their jobs - not enough money coming in, college football season up in the air, Protests and riots, the world going to hell.....should I go on?

I find it hard to believe that most of the high schools in my town have an IPF and a University of this size does not have one,  go with a pared down model and build the ******* thing!

Memphis just unveiled theirs...same variables you just listed applies to them...and by the way, how do protest and riots have anything to do with unveiling an IPF?  

Actually, no they don't. Memphis just finished theirs and we're just trying to get ours of the ground. They started fund raising 9 years ago and broke ground on the complex in 2017 ...... and Memphis has 5 times the Contributions we have. Variables couldn't be further apart,

A .000001% hit rate is nothing to sneeze at.

From what I understand we had enough money to break ground?  Is that not the case?

When you are talking about wealth it seems like an almost impossible number but when you are talking about Covid mortality rates for the young it’s almost the same thing as 💯.

I thought we did, too .... but also thought the ground breaking was due in the Spring and it's not inconceivable that this scourge may have affected it. Hopefully someone in the know reads this and enlightens.

Yes, enough to afford the shovels.
