Miami Today:

The University of Miami's School of Medicine wants to expand its research facilities and parking facilities by 1 million square feet within 10 years. The expansion, part of a capital improvement plan, is tied to university officials' desire to become one of the top 20 medical schools in the nation. [...] The school's capital campaign for campus-wide projects is expected to be made public in October, Dean Clarkson said. The university is currently in the "quiet phase" of its fund-raising plans for hundreds of millions of dollars, he said.
