  1. It's not a medical center, it's a medical school. And not the entire thing, as I understand it, but only for upperclasspeople. Grand Rapids has more medical facilities at which to intern/train than Lansing. In addition, there probably was a desire by the MSU administration to strengthen ties with the most successful part of the state, economically speaking. And, didn't Secchia give them a pail full of money?

    Economy may have played a part.

    Not just a medical school, but the HQ for the entire med school program. They're even moving the Dean over to Grand Rapids. They will still have a CHM campus at MSU, but it will be like a "satellite" campus to the main one in GR.

    As I understand it, it was precisely because of the partnerships of Spectrum, Saint Mary's, Secchia, and Van Andel Institute.

    And actually coolbrezze, the new MSU CHM building in GR is nothing to write home about (wrong thread though).

    Yeah I'm sure my comment got off topic after mention I prefer MSU over GVSU.

    Maybe Spectrum, Secchia, etc... played a part as well, just found it interesting.

  2. I'm a outdoor person, like snow, and suburbs... although I prefer Michigan State University over GVSU by far.

    I was surprise to see Michigan State University build their medical center in Grand Rapids ( yeah it's a nice city) but what about its city here East Lansing/ Lansing. Jobs and probably a boost in economy went over to Grand Rapids. I wonder how the medical center woudl have shaped downtown Lansing. I wouldn't say I'm angry by the movement, nor pleased... just interesting.

  3. Sounds like good news, any other major city around the country influenced by the health field?

    Also few people made statements that if your looking for a job in the health field, you should have no problem finding a job in Michigan. Would this be indicating that Michigan is now looking more than the autoindustry?
