Current union is butchered. They should tear it down and start over.

Why did they make it look like something that will be completely out of style in about 8 years?

Take a queue from the gorgeous library.

the current union is fine, they should take the money and spend it on teaching salaries.

I agree that the union is fine.  take the money and subsidize the cost of beer in the pool table area.

Yeah, ok, you lead the fundraising campaign for that one :flush:

The union is an eye sore, it needs to be upgraded. Its the first building high schoolers walk into, it needs to look new. Should be upgraded every 10 years, imo.

"Hey HS kids, look at these pool tables, and coors light 16oz'ers are only a buck"

"Also, did we mention that you can buy said beer at 9am and that the union is only a 5 min walk from basically any of your classes?"

Sold.

This looks nice, but the current union is already the nicest union I've visited. Have you guys been to KU's? LMFAO at that garbage heap.

I think I had the high score on the PacMan machine at the union for almost a semester.

Just pointing out how difficult it would be to get donors for subsidizing beer costs in the union  :dunno:

I guess I just assumed this was being paid for with a hike in student fees, just like the Rec Center upgrades were.

The Student Union is OK.  I just wish it weren't ugly as crap on the South Side.  It's the gateway to campus; first building a lot of visitors see.  I see an aesthetic facelift as a good thing.

Others I have been to:
Tulane- Small but very nice, pretty sweet food options and is open late nate.
Penn State- Amazing, but so is every other building on their campus
MU- Similair to our current one, better food options
ISU- Similair to our current one, nothing special

How many of those unions have bowling alleys and $1 beers?

I like the way we go from a Nissan R35, to a Mercedes S class, to a 2003 pontiac grand prix.
