Let's see...something called BSC selling a campus in the southeastern US. Birmingham-Southern College, which recently closed?

It looks like a nice campus. Someone will want it. The only barrier would be a bid minimum. And of course ownership will come with a lot of costs and liabilities that only a large organization could take on.

Rather than a single private buyer, a better idea might be deeding it to some sort of public-private entity, who would then rent individual buildings to smaller users. Much of it could be a park.

Alabama A&M seemed very interested in acquiring the campus, I wonder whatever happened to that.

Oh, I didn't realize the Miles College acquisition of the BSC campus fell through.

Yea, that proposal had no chance of actually happening.
