Outdated Bradley Dorms I had the pleasure of driving a student home from work to his dorm, and I just had to ask… "Are the dorms as bad as I've heard?"He looks at me a little puzzled and asked what I meant."Old, outdated, cramped"He thinks for a second and responds, "no, the dorms seem fine to me," then adds after a pause, "BUT, I have the entire room to myself." Judge Shadid, in one of his many interviews after being selected as the new president, remarked on the dorms being a priority.I did some googling and, not surprisingly, this is a fairly common problem. I was under the impression that they would be building new, but it turns out that you can renovate these concrete monstrosities, and at a fraction of the cost. If Bradley has enough rooms to offer singles, then surely they have enough to house the students while they renovate their stock.In other news, the city put down some pea gravel on Main St for what looks like prep work on an overlay. Why couldn't they do that before the students got back? It's better late than never, I suppose, but it's still just a bandaid until the funding for full the overhaul comes through. I wonder what they'll do with the intersection that everyone loves to hate? That might depend on what happens to the Avantis corner.Anyone looking to get into the restaurant business? The empty Fieldhouse space makes Campustown feel so naked!
