I’m sure that everyone has noticed just how much construction is going on here at BSU. It seems no matter where you walk, you see people in hard hats working. Whether you’re enjoying yourself on the Shea\Durgin hill but can’t quite get past the sight of excavator (diggers) or sleeping in on a Saturday morning and are woken up to the sound of beeping and drilling, it’s hard to ignore. Some students are questioning if it’s worth it.
Taking a toll?
Spring is right around the corner (even though it feels like summer lately) and that means more and more students are spending time outside. On East Campus, it’s near impossible to find a nice place to hang out under the sun without looking at dirt mounds and heavy machinery. Is all this construction causing BSU to become a sight for sore eyes? What about all of the high school students who come here to tour the campus- do they like seeing the brand new science building overshadowed by the seemingly endless construction next to it? I’m not too sure that’ll boost admissions.
The Future is Bright
While all this construction looks less than pleasant now, the end result will defiantly be worth it. Look at awesome the new Science Building came out- or even Hunt Hall’s renovation. Both of those took awhile to construct, but the end result blows away the previous piles of brick. This school has big future plans to make the campus look modern and environmentally friendly- a sight that I’m sure everyone will be very eager to see. With more green areas and state-of-the-art building, what touring high school student wouldn’t want to come back?
Do you like the ideas the school has for renovating our campus? Do you think the end product will be worth the construction?
