Don't miss out on joining nearly 1,500 of your colleagues and peers at higher education's premier planning event of 2010, SCUP–45. The Society for College and University Planning's 45th annual, international conference and idea marketplace is July 10–14 in Minneapolis!

Here's your SCUP Link on How is the University of Southern Indiana's Master Plan Shaping Up 4 Years Later? 

 Does it always come down to parking? The quote below is from a student news article. As well, here is a link where you can download the actual master plan (PDF).

A master plan is an instrument comprised of principles, objectives, developmental plans and several maps used for “shaping the physical character of a university campus” as the 2006 Master Plan defines. Proposed developments in the 2006 Master Plan included the roundabout, entry treatments and road improvements, all of which have been completed. The uncompleted projects include a visitor drop off, a perimeter loop road, surface drainage, an elevated walkway, and an improved loop road . . . Eventually, the plan is to have the main road loop around the perimeter of the university rather than run through the middle. If this plan eventually goes into effect, University Boulevard will only stretch from the entrance of campus at the roundabout to the Orr Center, where the visitor drop off will be located. This will also eliminate the majority of crosswalks that cause congestion and potential accidents. When it comes parking, Kalvelage believes that problem does not lie with lack of parking spaces.
