This is the problem with alumni....and this goes to alumni from all universities across the country. Just because you attended a school for 2 to 6 years doesn't mean you get to dictate the future of the campus and students. Alumni are just a blink in an institution's history. ASU will be around for decades...perhaps hundreds of years after yesterday's Alumni have been long gone.

Stop dictating what a school should do for todays students and the future. I think the building looks fantastic and modern...the way it should.
