Greetings and Investigations, Citizens!
I wasn't invited to assist with planning the "Scholar's Lounge", but I WAS invited to the dedication ceremonies, so that must account for something...I'm just not sure what.
At any rate, had I helped with planning, I would have insisted on a fireplace with attendant seating, or, better yet, a gas firepit (oval) surrounded by comfy chairs. A polished rim about the pit to place beverages/snacks upon, and a fat, leather-covered arm-rest edging the rim. Coffe, tea, juice and soft-drinks would be available, and a BYOB rule would be in effect for those able to manage their imbibications. Perhaps a server position for a deserving work-study student could be arranged (not forgetting to tip, of course).
I'm not saying that the current arrangement looks uncomfortable and "cubic", but...well, yes I am after all. Sorry.
After all these years I still miss Thornton Hall. Am I nuts?
Ya'll take care, and best of all to ya!
