By Bwog Staff on Feb 19, 2014 11 Comments

By Bwog Staff on Feb 19, 2014 13 Comments

The results from the SGA grant proposal are in: the Diana roof will now be open full-time for “recreational purposes.” Although a seemingly simple concept, opening the room actually requires installing a ten-foot high fence, which will cost between $50,000 and $60,000.
