Seriously though I see 5 benches and they will serve as a pseudo fence along the tree line.

With each passing day we are getting closer to the end of the world, too.

Would be nice to be able to tour these new buildings as they are completed! Heck it may bring in some Alumni monies, just sayin'!

I was going to take photographs this weekend but since they are so close to being finished I figured I would wait. Saturday was just one nasty day that was good for absolutely nothing. Today was not too bad and they did have some workers on site today. I don't think they will be finished for the January 7th date but they will be close. The only thing I don't look forward to is the demolition of the Guillory Hall over look of Cypress Lake. It is a favorite of many people that visit the campus. I hope they do something to replace it.

The parking garage is all but finished. They have some parking control devices to install and a little dress up but that is all.

Once these two projects are finished the only thing left on campus will be demolition of the eyesore buildings, the quad and Fletcher Hall. It will be nice to not have construction on campus after about 4 years of nonstop activity. It will be more of a college atmosphere.

The Student Union is open to the public, you can go in just about anytime. Many of the other buildings are too. The main exception being residence halls for obvious reasons.

I want you HelmutVII, to give me a tour as your more adept to the goings on of the structures that are being built than anyone I know! What say you?

Is it possible to enlarge the swamp once the old buildings on the North end of the swamp are torn down? Would be so awesome to add a 1/3-1/2acre of swamp and some viewing platforms, and places to sit and talk while basically hovering over the swamp in like and island type deck!

----I think that when that does finally go---I hate it except for the overlooking view---we could see some type of raised walk way!!!
