I was reading an article about several colleges building and running "on campus hotels". Seems like that would be another good source of money for colleges too. I saw where one school built a 170 room hotel on campus and prospective students and their parents stay there during visits and the fans of the schools sports programs stay there during the Season. Florida State and Penn State have gotten in on this.

Could also be a training ground for students majoring in the Hospitality industry. Maybe MSU needs to look into this.

We have the Butler guest house in between Hull and DWS. That said I think it only has like 10-15 rooms. It was always slammed full when I lived in Hull.

It's 10 rooms. They just updated it, which it badly needed. However, if you're not a guest of the president or one of the top donors, good luck getting it for a football game. It's a great location, we've stayed there for on campus meetings before.
