SMU: No deal in library suit

There is a kind of beautiful symmetry about his.

From the Dallas Morning News:

SMU rejected a proposal Wednesday that would have allowed a dozen university employees and a handful of architects with knowledge about the George W. Bush Presidential Library to be quizzed confidentially about the university's plans.

Meanwhile, the university's attorney confirmed that a formal announcement about the library could come as soon as mid-September.

Ousted condo owner Gary Vodicka offered the proposal as part his long-running effort to get details about Southern Methodist University's bid for the project. SMU has declined to discuss its plans, calling the information a trade secret that could be used by the Bush library competitors.
