Or why not go with modified Georgian, like most of the buildings in that cluster? Why did it need to be something totally different from everything on campus? *sigh* Not to mention the additional cost to build it that way. Have to say, all the cooper they added to the Lebaron addition had me more steamed then what they did to Coover. You know how much cooper cost now days, why didn't they just add gold?

Whatever that's how I feel whenever I'm in there anyway. However, I do rather enjoy when I happen to walk in after a Textiles lecture happens to be getting out of the big lecture hall as we all drool from the other side of the glass pane in the lab  |

It would be nice if they could generate enough revenue from non-athletic events to fund the Hilton improvements. I'm not in favor of box seats, unless they are placed in the "endzones". I just don't want to see us lose any seats in the prime locations. With the other amenities available in a private box, locating them in the endzones would still be attractive. I know donors that have boxes at Jack Trice, that don't want them in Hilton. I think it makes a difference if you are there to enteratain clients or if you primary purpose is watching the game.
