In relation to the money being spent to upgrade JTC and to close the bowl, I'd like to remind everyone what a terrible scar
ISU accepted as it's winning proposal to add buildings in front of Hilton.

Hilton is a masterpiece, a building that stands on it's own. It's a tribute to the ancient temples that started sport and should not be covered up with large glass boxes that take away from that monumental approach to Hilton.
I understand the need for upgraded facilities, but this is not the answer, and I hope Pollard, Dean Morton (sp?), and everyone else realizes what
ISU has and really comes through with better answers to this architectural question. This is unacceptable!!!
Ok, simmer down. I know you're an architect and I respect your trade. But, no matter what we do to Hilton it'll look better than that converted water treatment plant they call Carver Hawkeye.
