The campus had a more east coast wooded feel (through the eucalyptus trees) back then and the cafeterias that are no longer there (anchorview cafeteria at Revelle, ratskeller at muir college, che cafe), now it's more like a mall food court with commercial restaurants. In 1987, I loved it how I'd walk through a street or trail and then all of a sudden it opened up to the central library (aka geisel now). I worked at Oceanview cafeteria at 5th college and I agree that while not glamorus, we got free food and I learned so much about making sandwiches.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4870141659072738185.post-82876247002216574452019-09-07T21:04:57.325-08:002019-09-07T21:04:57.325-08:00I was there 1987-1992.

I don't remember my room number, but it was the corner unit on the side that had three rooms--456, I think? I might have looked into other living arrangements, but we were a German language house and I wanted that. Because we were on the top floor, my room had the high ceiling, of which I always took full advantage by borrowing one of the larger art reproductions from Cluster. (I'm not sure that's even a library anymore).<br /><br />I like the way Beatrice puts it..."that's where we met" and "that's didn't used to be there"...to which I had, "That's not York Hall, it's USB". <br /><br />I'm ambivalent about the renaming of Central Library to Geisel Library. In spite of the monetary contributions, I'm not sure Geisel or Dr. Seuss really fits the spirit of the place. Certainly, we who grew up in the 1960 all learned to read with The Cat In The Hat, but does that remain true for younger generations? And if Ms. Geisel really wanted to be generous with her money, then she could have been generous. She shouldn't have insisted that they renamed the library for her.<br />AimlessInLAhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09718152552754457700noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4870141659072738185.post-1878891400417702562011-08-01T12:24:13.890-08:002011-08-01T12:24:13.890-08:00That's surely a romantic way to spend the anni...That's surely a romantic way to spend the anniversary - walking down to the Univ where you met. Pretty sure you were talking about things like "this used to be where we…" and "that's not here before" and all the exciting findings. Students who live in the univ and in the dorms near it sure have an experience to cherish.Beatrice Norlinghttp://www.colonial-house.com/why-choose-off-campus-housing-byu.htmlnoreply@blogger.com
