Do you have any additional information about this school? My stepdaughter will be applying to dentistry schools this year and it would be terrific to have her in Tulsa.

That is if it is accredited and doesn't suck.

Does TU own it?  Looks like they're building a "TU Fence" around it. Prime retail space on Rt. 66 across from a college, and the best we get is fenced off parking?  

Nice.

I thought the same thing, but I have heard no indication with my TU contacts that it is a TU lot.  Likewise, it would be odd for them to renovate a lot at this corner when they own most of the East side of Harvard directly across from campus.  So I don't think so...  but I really do not know for sure.

Screw it... just a second.

Called University of Tulsa Physical Plant, they had to do a little checking with so many projects going on but:

"NO, that does not belong to the University of Tulsa."

^^This.

That would've made a kickin' bar for the TU kiddies.  And anyone else who likes to drink.

Dentistry is for losers. Sober losers.

I stopped by the collective with my family.  Nice place.  Half coffee shop mixed with the Atlas Grill and have low-key bar (with Marshall on tap).  The owner was very nice and everything is Tulsa themed.

We could get liquored up and go terrorize TURobY or Tulsa1603 before passing out.

There's always a spare bed, futon, couch, floor, or poolside lounger at Chez 71. [;)]

I was thinking about going by The Collective after my $3 burger at Full Moon after rowing this evening.  How late you going to be there Carlton?

Well, you'd have to stumble all the way to the Promenade area. I'm going to be pulling an all-nighter at work in preparation for our move downtown. [xx(]

I went by but they closed at 9pm.  I'll go back tomrrow night once I'm done w/ rowing.  I met the couple running the place, and I like them a lot.  I hope they manage it well, it's got many facets which can make it really, really cool.  That is, unless students have taken to buying beer and coffee from QT then hiding out in Student Housing.

I think the collective could be cool, but just a suggestion, closing at 9pm on weeknights sems like poison to the business. JMO...
