DISCUSSION
1. Review of Central Precinct Study
2. Discussion of closing Wyman Park Drive. The positive
effect of visually and physically extending the campus to the
Wyman Park Building while enhancing the aesthetic of the area and
providing easy pedestrian access back and forth. Negative
effects may include limiting vehicular circulation to surrounding
streets, congesting them, and possibly changing the character of
a historic Olmstead designed parkway.
3. Site options for Hodson Trust need to be developed
sized to accommodate the classroom/auditorium functions currently
being discussed.
4. The parking solution proposed for the Garland quad area
can't be too expensive or obtrusive to merit the number of spaces
provided.
5. If there is to be a garage incorporated in the Garland
Quad area, a campus building should take in the grade change at
the southern end of the quad.
6. There is a lot of support for adding more trees to the
existing quads.
7. It was suggested that Student Services functions may
need to be consolidated into one building and or area. How would
the prospect of Web-based registration effect the area required
to consolidate those functions?
8. More information needs to be collected on the plans for
the development of the Memorial Stadium site. The proposed YMCA
facility is supposed to be a showcase facility.
9. It would be interesting to conduct a survey of many
campuses and find out the relationship of the physical appearance
of a campus to admissions, and the relationship of the quality of
student life to alumni giving.
