So much has changed since I graduated in 2000. Heck even since I was there for the last Thursday night disaster against LSU.

I have some questions for those of you that are regulars on campus.

1. When did they build the dorm (I'm assuming it is a dorm) in front of Rice? Are they planning on leveling Rice? Please tell me they are. That place was dump when I was there and is really an eyesore now.
2. Are there any short term plans for Creswell or Hamlin? I know they just renovated them a few years ago, but with the new dorm right across the road, they really look like old crappy dorms that had a half-*** face lift done on them.
3. Are there plans to put anything where Suttle used to be?

Thanks for any info.

The dorm in front of Rice was completed last year, this is its first year housing residents. Right now it's called South Hall, since like Building III on the north side no one's given money to name it yet. 125,000 sq. ft. and 350 beds. I think it's neat that it has a band section within it for FMB members (called a "life-learning community).

Another view

Rice probably will stay for a while since the university spent the money to place doors on all floors to separate it half-women, half-men. They really need the space right now since freshmen are required to live on campus and MSU is growing. No idea whether they plan to keep Rice for the long term and renovate it or eventually tear it down. It's more solidly built than all of the new dorms.

Cresswell, Hamlin, and the Suttle site? No idea.
