@Ken, one more note on the graduate student part.

The university had actually proposed building ~175 beds of on-campus housing for graduate students and faculty in the so-called "1789 block," which is more than 90% university-owned, and within the bounds of the Campus Plan.

GU removed this housing, which would have actually been just the kind of urbanist mixed-use development you suggest, from the plan, in direct response to opposition from BCA/CAG, who don't believe that this University-owned property should be considered "on campus" and who felt that it should therefore have no additional development, mixed-use or otherwise.
