    Don't forget you'll be paying to use those multi-storeys and no it won't be as good value as Dundrum! :D

    I would slap a levy on L&H and a few others who will use this 'debating chamber' to pay for it.

    A swimming pool would be good value as long as the pay per visit charge isn't extortionate.

    Exactly! For example apart from the unreliable 17, it was only for a while when Dundrum Town Centre ran their own bus to and from that place that there was any decent transport towards Dundrum.

    I've clarified this point before...

    The SU had no official position on the Student Centre referendum. Some individual officers (me, for example) took part in the No campaign against it.

    The only people I saw lecture addressing in favour of it were members of Lawsoc/L&H as opposed to people you'd probably consider SU 'hacks'.

    Even if this will be beneficial in the long run, what the hell are we gonna do while they're building it? For something this big to go ahead, is gonna mean a lot more building sites and builders on campus than there is at present. That will be in a word, unpleasant.

    I was handed a budget-travel-esque leaflet about it by a girl who claimed to be 'from the SU campaign'.

    Obviously I didn't probe any further so she evidently wasn't.

    The most she could have been was a mere member of the SU (like everyone else) because the SU didn't take a position or endorse either the No or Yes campaigns (a point of frustration in itself, I might add..)

    But we digress...Boo to the new Student Centre..glad I don't have to pay the levy.
