Bush library planning

Four finalists have been picked to compete for the proposed George W. Bush presidential library.

One public university and three faith-based universities are the finalists to house the George W. Bush Presidential Library.

Baylor University, Southern Methodist University, the University of Dallas and the West Texas Coalition, a group led by Texas Tech University, were tapped this week by a six-member committee headed by Donald Evans of Midland.

The four proposals beat out bids from Texas A&M University, the University of Texas System and the city of Arlington.

The next step in the process will be presentations next month in Washington.

Condolences to The University of Texas and Texas A&M.
