MU System Wants To Build And Repair Buildings Through Bond Issue

The University of Missouri wants the state to let it issue $190-Million in bonds to build and repair buildings. The University says it would raise about $110-Million more from federal and private money. More than $150-Million of those dollars would go for life-sciences projects in Columbia, Kansas City, and St. Louis. The rest would be used to renovate engineering buildings in Rolla and Columbia.
