Show Scotch Bottle Buildings And Mud Holes By RON SCOTT Have you noticed all the holes and dirt mounds around campus? If not maybe you've had trouble finding find-ing parking close to your 8:50 class? If this isn't the case then maybe your an art student that had to walk miles to get to class. Sufficeth to say the campus is torn up and undergoing un-dergoing a complete renovation. By the time it's all over there will be little or no intercampus traffic, except ex-cept for bicycles and pedestrians. Unfortunately we'll have to suffer through this falling into mudholes, fighting traffic snarls in front of the Union and Orson Spencer Hall but in a few years because of our martyrdom, the students will be accomodated by such fine buildings as the new library, the sports center cen-ter the Fine Arts and Biological Science Buildings and paved parking park-ing areas around the perimeter of - the campus. Stick Around Students who plan to be here for a few more years had better get Dust Storm Just think of being able to attend a basketball game and actually get a good seat and not only that but being able to stamp your feet and sing "Utah Man" without raising rais-ing a dust storm so thick that the players can't be seen. Dear legislature, we are deeply indebted to you for selling bonds in order to build these new convien-iences. convien-iences. Your old program of "pay as you go" was antiquated and resulted re-sulted in such archetectural monstrosities mon-strosities as the Merrill Engineering Building. Now you too will have a University to be proud of, both in academic fields and in modern facilities. Old Man Winter Don't forget dear old administration, administra-tion, when old man winter throws a blanket of wet snow on our nice brown dry dirt to make it icky gooey slime that the students will expect some protection for their "white ducks" and loafers brown mud just makes white pants look horrible and ruins loafers. Besides we don't want to loose any of the prety freshman coeds in the "quick mud." And please don't asign Bud Cross and Crew to the "mud hole duty" it'll never get done. We all should feel proud to be a part of the new development that is taking place on campus. Students should put up with the temporary inconviences graciously, knowing full well that they will soon be replaced with a new and up to date campus. Parking is available in many perimeter parking areas such as the Annex parking, Merrill Engineering En-gineering parking, and Stadium parking. Sure it's a bit of a walk from there to class, but on your way you'll be able to see how much money is being spent to further , higher education . in the , State , of Utah. . , it , , , ,,( v .,. I TV . usea to waiKmg you'll be doing alot of it in the years to come. Most parking areas will be as far away as the Stadium Parking and all students will have a good I hike in store to f attend rlassps Ron Scott But it will be a nice hike. Tree lined sidewalks will grace the campus and will serve as the highways between buildings in the early 1970's. Large lawns will be in abundance more room for afternoon grass parties in the spring. And for summer students ... most of the buildings are being in-, ( ; stalled with air conditioning.. , , , , |
