They are doing what????!!!!??? The rose garden and various other sites at UBC are great tourist attractions during the summer. I know I've had to give directions to some poor tourist more than once while leaving various buses during the summer. Where in the world did they get this idea? >Why not raze one of the B lots, build a nice >10 storey building with 5 levels of underground parking, and move in there? This dwould be a great idea not only do we save the rose garden and other senic spots on campus but get a nice building and probably better parking in the exchange. They won't do it though because they will feel that it is too EXPENSIVE and than no one will miss the rose garden anyway. >Anyone else out there feel that the people who authorized this should >be kicked a few times, if not shot outright? Well you have my vote on this. But how about a little tourture first :-) > > /dev/russ - "Is the Japanese garden the next to feel the plow?" > Patricia
