Will Construction on Campus ever Cease?
January 29, 2013
Wire fences, blocked pathways, and men in neon yellow and orange vests seem to be the norm at George Mason University for the past 3 years. They have all become fixtures on campus and it seems as though once a project comes to completion, another begins. Will the class of 2013 ever get to enjoy the new and improved high-tech facilities in store for the future students of GMU?
“They said it should be done by Feb. 23, 2013,” according to William Glick, glazing and glass specialist of Glass & Metals Inc. located in Harrisonburg Va., “but it won’t be, it never does…you got to factor in the weather and stuff.” In the past year, Glick has been working on the ceiling designs for what will be the new science and technology building. He said they have been sketching up various blueprints and are “doing a lot of crazy stuff.” By “crazy stuff,” I am hoping crazy-good because according to Glick, the cost of the glass alone is $3.5 million. Sorry seniors, guess you will just have to come back and visit.
