this summer? Perhaps someone can fill in those of use who live out of state. Has work begun on the north entrance and the north loop road? How 'bout the football field? Is Lincolnway being rebuilt? Are there other projects going on?
Thanks, Paul

Football field is under construction. Lincolnway is under construction. Union construction continues.

Speaking of the north loop road and north campus entrance, is there any progress on that?

They are working on Lincolnway. Nothing up there can really be done until that project is completed I'm guessing.

What's going on with lot #43 (the big lot near the ARC)? I went by today and it was completely torn up. They just resurfaced and reorganized the lot last year, but are they doing it again?

They are redoing the lot to make it more user friendly. They didn't resurface it last year, just sealed and painted it. With the way they had it setup, it was impossible to get in and out of there in anything bigger than a VW Rabbit....
At least that's what I've been told when I asked...
About the FB field...the gravel is laid down and has been rolled smooth....sand and turf can't be too far behind

Wow, glad to see the Gestapo deleted my post. Seriously? That was weak!

Wow, glad to see the Gestapo deleted my post. Seriously? That was weak! Call it or me what you want, but I deleted the post that yours was directed at as it was a personal attack. You also wrote a personal attack, and no matter how "weak" it is, it is against the rules. Signed, The friendly forum Gestapo |

Swoosh, as in the Valpo swoosh, right? Not the Nike one?  |

The question was posed in another thread: What are all the stakes set up in the ARC parking lot?
They are reference points...the construction crew sets them up and shoots a survey reading to each, then puts a line or a ribbon on each one so that they crew smoothing the surface knows exactly how high to go.

Thanks for the info, Hoops. I was HOPING that they were building a surprise parking garage on that lot (it would be the perfect location for parking for basketball games and the nearby residence halls), but I suppose a reconfiguration will do for now.

I'm trying out a new camera, so I thought I'd take a shot of the Union for those who haven't seen it in a while. Since it's at night you can kind of peek inside!  |

Cool picture, thanks!
The webcam is showing what appears to be lots of landscaping going on. How does it look in person? Does anybody know if we are ahead of schedule? Landscaping always seems to be one of the last things done but maybe they just want the mud out of the way for the students return to campus. How exciting!
