    Infrastructure is a concern, but isn't necessary if key positions are not fulfilling the Alden Report.



    SOMEONE missed getting it on the ballot (and along with the grant deadline). Won't be on the ballot next year, election.
    We were going to apply thru Capital Outlay?

    Feels a lot like the RCC and the seating added in the 80’s doesn’t it? RR has some interesting things to discuss with Maggard. Heck, some of this may even deserve a FOIA request…like who is keeping RCAF tethered. And why?

    Third Place Explained

    Bars, clubs, barber shops, cafes, churches, parks, parlors, etc... Anchors of communities.

    For decades, we as a society, have slowly stopped frequenting these places of fellowship and relationship building. Instead, large companies have presented malls and plazas as "the new town square" and it has splintered our communities. Technology hasn't helped this trend, especially with the younger generations. Consumer-centric businesses can't replace human desire to interact with like-minded strangers over a shared interest. This is why people have tried to replicate communal gatherings through on-line communication like social media, gaming and forums.

    If I'm involved with UL development or promotions, my NUMBER ONE mission is transforming the athletic complex into the best Third Place option in a 10 mile radius of Reinhardt Dr.

    Given the administration put the Greeks under their thumb, RCAF under the foundation, student fans under the Pecan Patrol, and failure with the Alden report, what makes one think a restaurant/bar would possibly be placed on university property as a Third Place?

    Nothing makes me think that. My question is where does that place exist today in Lafayette? I cannot think of any.
