My main issue is that I don't see any mentioned increase of (storage/office) space for student clubs. Just more bookable rooms. The deep shame of student space over the past 10 years has been the steady eviction of student-run organizations that are not called Feds.
Also, as a lazy person, the half of it that's the PAC expansion doesn't interest me, though I'm sure it'll be greatly appreciated.
The bridge to MC is amazing. It's the holy grail of indoor connections! I can't believe it might actually come true!
In all, it's a bit more focused than the ~2008 proposal that was promising everything to everyone on a site at South Campus.
I think I preferred the ~2011 proposal for a student building near Grad House, as it was the same size, but was focused on student service facilities rather than being split 50-50 with athletic facilities, but that one unfortunately never made it to a referendum.
They desperately need to build something, anything, at this point, so I think I will begrudgingly approve, despite the lack of clearly non-Feds support space.
