   Personally, I think that Maritime Mall would be a good location for the 
facilities, and let's face it - unless Dal or TUNS builds a new site, there
aren't too many alternatives. And for the record, with a good brisk walk,
I can make it to TUNS from the SUB in 7-8 minutes. If you jog it's about
4. If you buy a bus pass, and time things well, you can get to TUNS in
under 3. Remember, computer scientists are given a problem, and find the
easiest, fastest solution in the minimum amount of time - well this is
just another problem solving exercise to be dealt with. 

   If Dal was smart, for all the money the merger was saving them, they'd
strike up a deal with the Metro Transit Authority to give CS students free
access to buses during the school term, perhaps with a small differential
fee compensating for this cost. Then again, I'm only following this thread
for interest's sake, not because it affects me, so take anything I say
with a grain of silicon.
