The drawing looks nice. However, the price tag is now up to $59 million? I think I remember reading that this building will be paid for with student fees too! Wow! We could have had a football team for that kind of money…

ahhh just in time to charge me for a full 4 years of no usage. EXCELLENT!seriously man. i keep saying I wish I'd come to this school a few years later. there is going to be so much more cool stuff here once i graduate. but even if i came here later, id still be saying that, considering how fast the school is growing. im going to come here and hang out at all the stuff either way. ill be that old creepy guy if i have to. I'm going to enjoy my student union somehow.

There’s always grad. school. That’s how was able to experience the new things. 
And, don’t even try to take my title of official old creepy guy.

What about the stuff that other people who came before you had built with their student fees?
Should they be upset that you got stuff that they didn’t?

oh I don’t really care, I just wish I could have used it.
hopefully we all can get a little use of it
I hope all of you enjoy it. There is additional good news because of this.
Now, people will say “unc CHARLOTTE… they may not have football but they sure do have one nice student union”. :rolleyes:
Seriously, I hope it’s a nice one.

It will be the IDEAL place to organize the Football at Charlotte campaign…
Think about that!
That’s strange… The left and right sides from the entrance now look different that the original picture from the Facilities Management site. They look bigger & grander and look as though they might have entrance points as well.
I guess the plan has evolved some.
Looks great however.

ID, it looks like they stuck two new building “sections” on the right and left side… Those are really big additions/pieces. Did the original picture just not have them?
Edit: Maybe I’m just looking at it wrong…

i dont understand how you are not seeing that that is the same building.
i see that it is
Ok, I WAS looking at it wrong… What threw me off was those big box-like parts on top of the left and right sides that aren’t present on the old picture!
:wacko:
