Bold Changes is The Brown Noser's look at the University's misallocation of funds.
Today, I noticed electric curtains in the V-Dub. They slid up and down, and even remained stationary halfway, so as to provide varying amounts of light for diners. And all it took was for a BDS staff member to walk over and press a button. Now, that's a bold change.
Lately, I've been hearing talk about an upcoming Walk that will extend from Pembroke Campus to Lincoln Field. Currently, I have to get across campus by walking all the way to Thayer Street or even further--to Brown Street. If only all those buildings weren't in the way, I always think. The University listened, and now they are getting rid of all those unnnecessary buildings with superfluous things like classrooms, so I have another choice of walkway. Now, that's a bold change.
The OMAC is sporting some new greenery. If you walk behind, you'll see some fresh trees, flowers, and shrubbery. This is great because I always felt the OMAC was missing that romantic touch. Its image had always been too masculine and intimidating. Now, that's a bold change.
