Plan
Continued from page 1
“One of the main goals was to connect people,
places and programs across campus,” Miller said.
“We want to make just one campus.”
Miller said A&M will attempt to do this by cre
ating two underpasses under Wellborn that will
allow vehicles through and by filling the space
between West and Main Campus with buildings
and parking lots.
Miller said the campus master plan has been
enacted, and that one of the most significant
changes students will see on campus as a result of
the plan is the possible addition of a new, multi-
mi llion-dollar Life Sciences complex.
“Decisions being made about the future
of the campus now are done with the master
plan,” Miller said.
Austin Main, project manager for the Save
Hotard campaign last spring and a junior poul
try science major, said he has been unhappy with
the campus master plan because it unnecessarily
closed low-cost student housing, such as Hotard
Hall, which is being allowed to remain open this
year only after student lobbying last semester.
“1 personally would not have given the plan an
award,” Main said. “I think some parts of it are
good, but there are some things they could have
done better with and got some student input on.”
Main said the plan lacked student involve
ment and that it is not staying with the goals
of Vision 20/20. Under the new campus master
plan, several dorms will be closed in upcoming
semesters, and new ones will not be rebuilt for
at least five years.
“One of the goals of Vision 20/20 is to have
more on-campus living, and they are not planning
on building any on-campus residence halls any
time soon,” Main said.
Main said the campus master plan would
have been better had the steering committee
researched all the alternatives and sought input
from students.
Miller said this plan shows that A&M is
planning its future, and is always striving to
ward excellence.
“What we’re hoping with this plan is that it will
bring to the campus the level of excellence we see
in our students,” Miller said. “We want the cam
pus to reflect the quality of the University. When
people are walking across campus, we want them
to immediately sense the spirit, traditions and ex
cellence of the University.”
Miller said she hopes A&M’s plan will have an
effect on other universities nationwide.
“We have already been contacted by other uni
versities to see our master plan so that they can
get ideas,” Miller said.
