Laser center promises jobs and end to Iowa farm crisis
In 1986 Freedman urged Iowa to build a top laser research facility promising 12 000 jobs and world class researchers. By 1987 25 million in bonds were approved but the project unraveled as key hires did not join and funding fell short. Critics say the center was oversold and its impact diminished with leadership changes. The plan reshaped state budgeting and oversight of capital projects.

Iowas IATL building fuels cross discipline research
The IATL at the University of Iowa houses 21 faculty and enables chemists engineers and physicists to collaborate across floors. The eastern side of the low profile wing, once unused, now stores racing shells for the US women's rowing team awaiting a funded finish. The space would cost about 2 million dollars to complete but no plan exists until a sponsoral project arises.
