    Has anybody or you from the contractors seen what the finished product is suppose to look like??? I can see where they have gotten rid of the kitchen area and the old bookstore area (just amazing but after the dorms I believe all)---I was in charge of part of the training table for a couple of years and I would go to Delcambre and sometimes I would have shrimp and crabs on the menu---fun times!!!

    It just occurred to me how funny it is that the admin could move ahead with these renovation and construction projects without the campus aster plan having been finished down to the last t being crossed and the last I dotted but we couldn't move ahead with the much needed and long promised new weight room until every last detail of the athletic plan is completed.

    I have the same question: I would love to see blue prints/floor plans/elevations of what the new union will loook like. Anyone knows where to find this? All I have been able to find is the elevation from McKinley Street (used in the all of the Masterplan adverts).
    Same thing goes for Cajunfield....any drawings of those proposed changes?
    Thanks!
