A tale of two campuses...

A funny piece by a professor at Hope College (details in a previous column unveiled his anonymity) about the differences in a university's pecking order measured by the building one occupies. The asbestos laden "temporary" Quonset huts built after the war (no, not the Gulf war, WW2!) and occupied by the art department so many years at my university were recently demolished for a new engineering building (coincidentally, a new visual and performing arts building was just built too).
