I've told this story before but I had drinks with Travis DeCuire in August 2013 in Shanghai (he was here there for this: https://calbears.com/sports/2013/7/31/208876960) and he said that the facility was ready to go - just needed a sign-off. Not sure what happened to the money THAT time but hopefully this time it won't be a decade long stall
Probably best to keep it on the DL just in case the local cuckoo birds decide that the location has some sort of cultural significance, such as being near the Hateman's favorite shit bucket spot or something.

Cal technically isn't subject to city and state regulations, so shouldn't have to go thru as much public debate, but I'm surprised that there was no word of any hearings, etc. Like a meeting where professors or students raise concepts about cost or land-use or...

These kids want bells and whistles.
