I still don’t quite understand if the university is really owed the 2.1 billion they claim. I feel like MTSU has been underfunded at times also. Anyone have any insight on this?

They are only that because the state didn't match the land grant funding.

Maybe MT can absorb TSU....oh wait. Our esteemed leadership failed to close a nice deal for a law school recently.

Saw where their enrollment is down to only 6k but the titans are still providing sky boxes in the new stadium and they can still play their football games there. Be careful what you ask for because stranger things have happened …….

A couple of years ago Valparasio
University was in the process of closing their law school. MT was interested and actively negotiating to transfer the school to us. I think there were some costs to MT of approximately $1m. Or leadership doesn't have enough pull to get the TBOR approval so it was shot down. That's it in a nutshell.

I wouldn't be surprised if their was a merger of the two schools.
