Saying "Hey! They have one, why don't we?" as justification is a way ####tier reason to create something rather than "We need one".

I am really bad at putting the issue in context: The reason they were addressing the university was to along the lines of "well if one doesn't exist, why?". That question, at least from what I was told by them, puts forth the notion that they were going to ask first if one had existed, but was folded after being no longer needed. They question of "we need one at this campus" can't be answered without pilot projects/experimental data and the group wasn't aware of whether or not one had existed first, a question they needed answered could be answered by a person with more in depth knowledge of the issue - in other words, the student relations. At least, in their view. Again, I don't know exactly how that ended.
