Yes, we need as many Medical schools as possible. We're at a huge higher education deficit, that includes Medical Higher Education.

Historically there have been ABOR/UofA issues about ASU getting a Medical school. Luckily Dr. Crow seems to have enough power that he's been able to get a lot of stuff done that we all thought we'd never see.

Though unless I totally missed it I haven't seen the word "Downtown" in any of this ASU/Mayo stuff. One article even mentioned Peggy Neely's name. The thought could be to build a Medical campus/clinic on any of that open desert in Neely's district by the Mayo clinic.

Of course I'd/we'd prefer a small Mayo Clinic and ASU campus Downtown, helping to fill out the BioMed campus.
