Good Bye Student Union

[Turbine]

I wonder if there was a student fee fails option, and a student fee passes option?

(on how extensive the remodel/rebuild would be)

Thought they were saving the ballroom and the bk store??? Can't really tell from the photo if that part is still there or not!!!

Bookstore and ball room will stay but will be extremely renovated.

The area of the student union being demolished will be rebuilt but shifted to McKinley Street. Leaving a fairly large area between cypress lake, the ballroom and the bookstore for an open air plaza. the big concrete canopy will remain. The area between the bookstore and Guillory hall (the old bowling alley and original student union) will be a new wing off of the bookstore for food service. The eyesore buildings and Guillory Hall will be demolished after the renovations to the student union are completed. A plaza area will be built where Guillory Hall is now for use of the students living in the residence halls. The area where the eysore buildings are will be landscaped.

I was going to post photos of the demolition this weekend. I usually do a weekly update on Sunday evening. I missed the weekend of the 22 of December because I went to the New Orleans bowl and was pressed for time.

------Helmut---you do realize that missing any of this can get your ___ fired don't you???? Thanks again for keeping up this wonderful historical sequence of events---The wife and I might have to come get a PHD and live on campus!!!!

That place had the oddest smell. Not found anywhere else on campus. Weird.

I'll never forget the old Bulldog on the wall near the side entrance. Wish I could have gotten e momento off of that.

I hope this will suffice. I took it last year before the White-out game.
