The story: The University of Arizona will suspend building a combined UA Science Center and Arizona State Museum downtown until the national and state economic crises ease.
Your take: An indefinite suspension would suit many members of the Citizen’s online community, such as errorzona, who wants the project “cancelled completely.” Some representative comments:
• “Good news . . . . UA can re-focus on teaching and research. The City of Tucson can focus on basic municipal services (potholes) and viable economic development.” Red Star
• “For a place that is supposed to be a place of higher learning, UA needs to go back to school. It seems everything they do is wrong.” Burta
• “I’ll be contrarian. Build the museum/science house . . . and shut down the politikal science department (that’s not a misspelling).” NevadaDemocrat
• “You must have a viable downtown to have a great city . . . it is critical to the success of Tucson.” Believe
