The more I see petitions for the new College of Ed building, the more I wonder... I know we need a new building, it just isn't working. However, I appreciate the town of Boone standing up to the university and saying no. The proposed building breaks so many codes and rules, is on a not-properly zoned piece of land. Why is the university abusing the town... there are so many recent projects that have been snuck through - like the new parking deck. Is the university right to take advantage?

a bit ironic? a building for a program designed to teach teachers who will teach students about being stand up members of their communities. we all know that behavior is learned through modeling, and if cutting corners starts at the top then can we expect that from our students? the president and his administration are doing the same thing, on a way larger scale. they expect iraq, iran and n. korea to be honest about what weapons they have but we can keep prisoners secretly for undistinguished amounts of time at Gitmo Bay. seems like madness to me.
