So I met with Sally Katz from Buildings and Grounds last week and she informed me about the current situation with dormitory bathroom updates on campus. As of now, their funding for facility updates are solely for emergencies. They have a small pool of money for reworking and renovation of the campus facilities, and they feel this money’s use should be guided by what students want to see change. I think this money should be used to update some of fixtures in our bathrooms. Faucets and showerheads in select dorms are inadequate in many people’s opinions. What we thought would be cool is to make this into an environmental update as well. If we install water efficient fixtures that better serve the student’s needs, it can be even more tempting for the college to fund. My goal is to find which dorms need these updates first. If you feel your dorm merits this, or you know of other dorms specifically that need these updates, please let me know. I need to get back to Sally before Thanksgiving with these specific dorms. So far, I have only pinpointed Jones as one of the recipients. Look forward to hearing from you!
