[quote=Anonymous] Why would GW let Walls use their pool? [/quote] Because it has a relationship with the the school? Because it is common for universities to let high schools use their pool? In smaller cities, local govts are much more aggressive with requiring the universities in town to actually do stuff for the local community.[/quote] This isn't a small town. Maybe DC should actually build facilities for their schools. Other towns manage to do it with far lower taxes than DC [/quote] How about because GW was required by law 20 years ago to provide more on-campus housing so it struck a public-private partnership deal with SWW/DCPS to use the only open space on SWW campus to build a new dorm. This was in exchange for helping to renovate SWW and provide shared access to GW facilities. My guess is this agreement was vague/in good faith and GW never fully held up its end of the bargain.[/quote]
