Saw a post about it on rivals...Does anyone know about this ?
Baker Hall is being renovated and be closed until August 2014. Baker desperately needed updating and is going to be beautiful when it is renovated complete with many historical features still intact.
Rather than be concerned about the impact on football fans who park near Farrand Field 6-7 times a year, maybe have more empathy for the current students who will be inconvenienced for the entire year and those who live around Farrand Field who will put up with the construction daily for 9 months. just saying
Also I've just joined AllBuffs but have been following for awhile...And yes I bleed Black and Gold!!
Soooooo, **** alumni engagement then? Why can't we have empathy or sympathy for both the students and our supporters?
What is the impact to students, just out of curiosity?
They can't get baked in baker until 2014 dumbass.
That's compelling.
But why not come out and say "In addition to our supporters who are impacted by the construction, our students are inconvenienced as well."
It makes me wonder if this guy works for the university, since his default position was to be combative to our alumni/fanbase.
he said he has been lurking for awhile. Combative to a fellow poster is a natural position to take. Also you seem more argumentative lately.

I feel as though I'm less argumentative.
nobody cares about your feelings.

"We're not going to renovate the rec because a couple thousand SR's may or may not be inconvenienced while using it in their final year"

i have no problem with renovating baker hall. I just don't understand why the lot has to be used. Why not put that stuff on the north side of baker? You know, where there aren't any parking spots?

There is a big, wide sidewalk on the North side of Baker. No need to use the grassy area.asphalt = no replacement $
turfgrass/irrigation = replacement $
you decide...
Not sure but maybe because Duane Physics and JILA are on the north side and they don't want to disturb classrooms and scientific equipment with the construction noise. Also it is better to have the construction staging area on asphalt and concrete than on the grass lawn north of Baker. Maybe???I have no problem with renovating Baker Hall.

On the South side of Baker of course.
I could give a **** less about your feelings.I'd argue that they do.
