Furthermore, I want higher floor counts in west campus (true towers, perhaps with more diversity of uses to disperse commuter patterns in the core lessening the disparity in regional/location infrastructure burdens, would be nice) and higher floor counts in the capital complex as well.

I'm with ya, but we all know that the above is not going to happen...our views on this are in the minority. There are too many people around who fear tall buildings.
