[QUOTE="Animal02, post: 84630, member: 347"] What? Make things Barrier Free? All it takes is a few ramps, maybe an elevator...........I have seen claims like this all too often. I cannot count the times I have seen "reports" that claim a school building is obsolete and must be torn down and rebuilt.......the report being generated by the same A/E firm that will end up getting the contract for the new design. I was also at Tech when the "Peter's Park" crap happened. Campus Planning (think his name was Clyde Robbins) decided they were going to build a parking deck in Peter's Park. Students that were against it discovered a deed restriction that the property had to be used as a park.....it was poo-pooed and the parking deck went ahead....at the last minute, admin admitted that there was indeed a deed restriction and threw in a couple of tennis courts to "make it legit" Pretty much everyone looked the other way.....and students got screwed out of green space. Another thing that happened when I was at Tech.....they started the mandatory athletic fees.....part of the promise was that AA facilities would be more available to students.......not long after the fees were instituted......BDS was gated and locked 24/7 as well as the loss of use of other AA facilities.........it is all about $$$$$ [/QUOTE]
