Michigan universities, colleges get $300 million from state for building projects Wayne State University hosted Gov. Rick Snyder yesterday as he signed a bill authorizing more than $300 million in spending on Michigan universities. Wayne State President Allan Gilmour outlined plans for the new Multidisciplinary Biomedical Research Building, set to break ground this summer. "The students will be the long-term beneficiaries of this, and so will the transfer of knowledge," Gilmour said. "People will push for more answers (and) push the boundaries of knowledge." WDET reporter Dan Lloyd provided on site coverage of the event, and the station ran stories throughout the evening.
