Carter East and West being torn down
I heard these two older dorms would be torn down this summer? Anyone else have any insight or know when that will happen?

Dang, I hope they don't fingerprint those grow lights in the closet on the second floor in East. Maybe they're gone now. I hope.

The plan is to eventually tear down Carter East and West, although nothing is set in stone. With the movement of honors housing to McKinnon, Scott and Tucker Halls, the Academic House (traditional honors housing) will be closed this Fall for renovations. The thinking is to use some floors at Carter for overflow honors students until the new privately-financed dormitory in the Dowd,Nash,White footprint is completed. It is supposed to house honors students, and with the other buildings will comprise an Honors Village. What happens to Carter after that is anyone's guess, although a tear down and using that space plus Carter Field for a new baseball/Softball/Soccer complex has been mentioned.

What about the "Non" Honor Drunk students? this smells of discrimination

It seems to me it would make more sense to use Academic House for overflow and renovate on the fast track during the summer months in 2015.

LOL If this is true ( and I hope not) all Carter Hall alumns must insist on a memorial to the incredicle amount of personal development and academic success attained in those hallowed halls!
Long Live Carter Hall!
