Hey look, that student center located in the transparent cube thing between Furnald and the J-School is on the verge of opening. It’s not serving yet, but the facilities appear to be ready to go and it’s no longer under construction. The interior looks like what someone in 1983 might imagine a cafe in 2008 to look like.

@*sigh* When will Columbia stop tacking on ugly modern crap to gorgeous neo classical buildings?
@*sigh* When you start making 8 figure donations with strings attached that say just that.
@... it’s the columbia university virtual graduate school of journalism in second life!
@imagining Yes, but there will still be a cashier at the end of the line shouting “Next!”
@Blue Java Butler Next on line, hi cam I help you?
@Imagine... In the year 2000, our food will be ferried along on light-speed beams of information. Cafeteria trays will belong in museums and history books.
@wait i still think it’s a computer rendering
@wait I wish Lerner was just a computer rendering, and that they’d build our real student center sometime soon.
@Lydia It’s not a computer rendering, just a cell phone photo that looks weird when blown up. Honest.
@meee at first glance, i thought bwog put up a computer rendering of what it would look like.
@weird glad im not the only one to think that
@Conrad I completely agree with the 1983 thing…It also looks like a bad movie set
