Come on PSU! Doesn't the knowledge that rehabbing existing housing more environmentally sound fit your motto?

"We are not a typical ivory tower university. Instead, we are located right downtown, and we embody the university mission to "Let Knowledge

Serve."

Where is your sense of place? You brag about being right downtown. This building is historic. It's an important part of PSU's history. Old, beautiful, useful buildings are part of the legacy universities leave. Do you think Harvard, Oxford or the University of Washington tear down their historical buildings? I doubt it and only as a last resort. So disappointing. Jane Pullman, MUS and PSU Alum.

No ivy-covered halls for PSU. The last vestiges of the old neighborhood that survived the 405 demolition have left undistinguished buildings and nothing to signal the organic growth of the campus.
