$58 million renovation plan for Southeast Missouri State University

From The Southeast Missourian: The Southeast Missouri State University Board of Regents has set in motion a plan to borrow $58.2 million for a massive maintenance and renovation plan on the school's Cape Girardeau campus. The board unanimously approved a recommendation by Southeast president Dr. Ken Dobbins to sell bonds for a $58.25 million project, which would include a $22.78 million upgrade of the campus' century-old Academic Hall and a nearly $18 million renovation of Magill Hall, the university's science building. The proposal also calls for nearly $10 million in deferred maintenance projects and nearly $7 million in power plant upgrades.
