-The Hughes-Dillard Alumni Center was to be razed this month as part of an agreement between the alumni association and Baylor. The university wants to use the site for a plaza leading to a pedestrian bridge that will connect the campus to the football stadium under construction on the opposite bank of the Brazos River.

-  But U.S. District Judge Walter Smith Jr. signed a temporary injunction July 2 halting <a href=http://architectscanterbury.co.uk/page.php?sale=Kate-Spade-White-Handbag>Kate Spade White Handbag</a>  the demolition in response to a suit filed by Chicago banker Kurt Dorr alleging that the move needed the approval of the alumni association鈥檚 membership.
+It鈥檚 the first year that the 拢50,000 prize has been open to authors outside the British Commonwealth, but the four others on the shortlist are all from Britain or Australia:
- Baylor; BAA; the group鈥檚 past president, Elizabeth Coker; and its current president, Collin Cox,鈥╝re named as defendants, although Dorr鈥檚 attorneys have filed a motion to dismiss Baylor as a party.
+Richard Flanagan of Australia (鈥淭he Narrow Road to the Deep North鈥?
- After a hearing Wednesday in Waco that lasted 41/2 hours, Smith mandated that the parties enter mediation with the goal of resolving the dispute this month. Attorneys for the parties agreed to meet July 22 with Austin-based mediator Karl Bayer.
- The temporary restraining order blocking demolition will remain in effect until the mediation is completed.
+Howard Jacobson of Britain (鈥淛鈥?
- Brian Nicholson, associate vice president of facilities, planning and construction for Baylor, testified that postponing the demolition will not prevent completion of the stadium and the pedestrian bridge in time for the first game of the 2014 football鈥╯eason.
- But Nicholson said the university could incur up to $300,000 in additional overtime costs to stay on schedule if the demolition is pushed back to September, when BAA members could next convene to vote on the project.
+Neel Mukherjee of Britain (鈥淭he Lives of Others鈥?
- Also, he said, part of the alumni center site is needed as a temporary parking lot for Mayborn Museum staff during phases 鈥╫f construction.
- Dorr鈥檚 request for the restraining <a href=http://architectscanterbury.co.uk/page.php?sale=Kate-Spade-Straw-Handbags>Kate Spade Bags Uk</a>  order claims that the agreement to vacate the alumni building violates a 1994 contract that prevents Baylor from taking possession of the alumni center unless there is a need for the land, no alternative exists, and Baylor provides another building of comparable 鈥渟ize, condition, quality of construction and location.鈥?
+Ali Smith of Britain (鈥淗ow to Be Both鈥?
- In addition, the suit charges that an agreement that would transfer alumni outreach functions to Baylor violates a 1993 license agreement that gives BAA the perpetual right to act as the university鈥檚 alumni association except in the case of a default.
+AC Grayling, chair of this year鈥檚 judges, said, 鈥淚t is a strong, thought-provoking shortlist <a href=http://www.museosangennaro.com/Public/anel.php> Christian Louboutin  Shoes Sale</a>  which we believe demonstrates the wonderful depth and range of contemporary fiction in English.鈥?
- Both agreements were signed by Cox, Coker and Baylor leaders on May 31.

- But attorneys for BAA and Baylor argued that while the agreement to transfer alumni outreach functions still must be approved by two-thirds of the alumni membership at an upcoming Sept. 7 meeting, the agreement to leave the alumni building is a separate document that only required approval by the executive committee.
+Jacobson won the prize with 鈥淭he Finkler Question鈥?in 2010, and Smith has been shortlisted twice, with 鈥淭he Accidental鈥?(2005) and 鈥淗otel World鈥?(2001).
- Cox testified Wednesday that 11 of BAA鈥檚 14 executive committee members approved both agreements in a single vote during a May 30 conference call.
+Previous prize winners include Salman Rushdie (鈥淢idnight鈥檚 Children,鈥?1981), A.S. Byatt (鈥淧ossession,鈥?1990) and Margaret Atwood (鈥淭he Blind Assassin,鈥?2000). <a href=http://www.museosangennaro.com/Public/anel.php> Christian Louboutin Shoes Outlet</a>
- Adam Feinberg, another attorney for Dorr, argued that the two agreements were part of an ongoing effort by Baylor to force closure of the alumni association.
+This year鈥檚 winning novel will be named Oct. 14.
- Baylor in the past decade started its own alumni outreach organization called the Baylor Alumni Network.
+More information:
- Former BAA board member Kent <a href=http://architectscanterbury.co.uk/page.php?sale=True-Religion-Jean>True Religion Jean</a>  Reynolds testified that Baylor in 2009 presented and later withdrew a different proposal to dissolve the association and take over its functions.
- Reynolds said the relationship with the university progressed from 鈥渟trained鈥?to 鈥渃ontentious鈥?after that proposal.
