T
he campus center construction site has been on the minds of many students on campus for these past semesters. Most are starting to wonder if it is worth the trouble. Students are starting to question why the school would waste money on this new building when it could have used that money towards more classes. There are more negative reactions toward the new building than positive ones. “I’m not able to walk directly to my class, which isn’t such a big deal, but it’s useless to me since I’ll be gone next semester,” student Matthew Martin-Hall said. “Also I think they should have spent their money on something else like more classes. But in the end I hope it’s worth it.” However, no money has been wasted during this construction. Everything was funded through bonds, restricted to expanding our campuses with new buildings. The people voted that this money be used only for new buildings and updates. Fortunately it will not always be a hassle to take a long detour to class. Project completion is expected for July 31, 2011.
