Bradley the headline about the Bradley Scout article — BU officials say posted map is inaccurate — I couldn’t find a single word that denied what I’ve been writing:
A map recently published in the Peoria Pundit blog detailing Bradley’s 15-year plan for campus expansion and improvements bears some relevance, said Vice President for Business...

BU in a state of non-denial denial about expansion
BU plans to exploit neighborhood
Sometimes I’m so smart I scare myself. A week ago, I predicted that Bradley University was going to use its surprising victories in the NCAA men’s basketball tournament to raise money for new facilities on campus, and this was bad news for neighbors in the nearby Arbor District.

POed at BU
I got a copy of an open letter that Arbor District resident Armond Ciota sent to members of the Peoria City Council and to members of the city staff.
He’s upset at a Bradley University land grab the reasons for which they won’t discuss in public, but almost certainly involves more student parking and a...
