COMMENTARY


What would you do with the idle Co-Op Bookstore Space?


Dana Adipietro College senior:
"I just want another bookstore."


Lara Petrak College junior:
I think they should turn it into another science building.


Kelly Dobos College senior:
A bar.


Ben Calhoun College junior:
There's something that I genuinely want, and that's a Mexican restaurant.


Theresa Schmidt College first-year:
I think they should sell all the merchandise because there's a bunch of stuff I'd like to buy.


Ivor Edmonds College sophomore:
A nightclub is fine.


Sarah Freeman College senior:
The new headquarters of MTV. Awesome!


Anjali Blob College first-year:
A music store! I would like a CD store in this town.


Jane Glynn College junior:
I think it would be really hot if it could be turned into some kind of performance space. Or a swing club, and I don't mean dancing. I mean showers and humping and stuff. Or office space.


Bridget Matros College junior:
I'd like to see it taken over by a small team of jobless artsy alum and turned into a crafty free-for-all, with decoupage sleepovers, bodypainting, and a lil' ol' stage for lil' ol' me.


Alexander Elisa College senior:
I'd like to have it be restored to the way it was or something better, where students could interact more.


Elnie Gillers College senior:
A roller-rink.
