[edit] Aquinas College Land Value

The following article states that Aquinas College land value is worth in Excess of 1.2 billion dollars (and thats just the land not including facilities eg: the main castle would be worth a lot for look and historical reasons, the ovals would be worth alot for their condition etc). I think that is a good bit of information, I will look for a place to add it in, maybe in the introduction. reference: [1] --Yungur (talk) 08:49, 24 November 2007 (UTC)

I have added a short bit on the land price to the first paragraph under "Campus", however I think it might be a good quick fact for the introduction, and it would most probably get people more inclined to read the rest of the article, I mean, thats an impressive land value :) --Yungur (talk) 08:52, 24 November 2007 (UTC)

I have removed that it is valued "in excess of 1.2b", the article says 1.2bn so i have ammended it as such. Does anyone know what day the article was from? Twenty Years 18:45, 2 December 2007 (UTC)

That figure of $1.2 billion dollars is incorrect. The school had the land valued a couple of years ago at less than 300 million, due to how the land is zoned and other factors. The article that contained the quote of $1.2 billion was made by spin doctors working for the government. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 122.109.138.93 (talk) 07:40, 10 February 2008 (UTC)

you should take that up with the source not the article, and I am pretty sure you will find that with inflation and high property values the school would be worth well in excess of 300 million..
