> A campus for Ave Maria University (Fla.) is bit closer to becoming a reality now that the developers have received the final permits to build on 5,000 acres of old farm fields in Naples, Fla. One of the new religious university's financiers is Tom Monaghan, founder of the Domino's Pizza chain. He is personally pledged $240 million to help build the campus and another $300 million to establish an endowment.
