I read somewhere that crist is going to veto the bill, because it didn't make any sense to have it in polk county.  I will have to find the link.

Crist vetoed USF pharmacy school money today and also construction money for new USF Poly campus construction.  USF was clubbed good to the tune of $46 million in lost project money.  OUCH!

it's sucks they lost all that money, but I am kinda glad he vetoed the pharmacy project.  It needs to be at the tampa campus by the moffit center.

The Pharm school would have actually lined up well with USFP's vision and mission.

The comments are about 95% telling Alexander to STFU. Would have been a waste of money anyway - the problem is who would go out to Lakeland for pharmacy school when all the other medical facilities are 30 miles away?
