    Dream scenario.

    UL has just won the lotto (let me just clarify that it hasn't, in fact it probably doesn't even do the lotto).

    What big project would students want from it??

    The world's deepest indoor diving pit?
    A rollercoaster from Cappa to the East Gate?
    A 100m climbing wall?
    A paintball arena?


    Keep it to non-academic stuff...that's no fun!

    All lecture theatres to have fully reclining chairs...and quilts and pillows
    Move the Arena as it's on top of a very steep hill so only the fit people can get to it (what chance do the rest of us have?)

    A UFC style pit where students and lecturers can battle it out if there are disagreements over grades, topped with barbed wire and surrounded by guard towers with machine guns in them. Televise the contests on the Internet.

    A monorail system that goes from building to building.

    An electric roof over the whole lot to keep out the rain.

    Drinking fountains with Red Bull and Coke around the campus.

    Computers that actually work at a humanly acceptable rate :mad: - Not very academic, it's just something I want. Maybe give every student a new laptop? :)

    A sound-proof room in the library for students to scream hysterically in to relieve stress from study/projects, etc

    And jet packs. Fcuk it. I want jet packs!! :(

    We should bribe the university to let us paint or graffiti (the good kind, mind you) all over the walls - some of them just look so dull and oppressing... and then of course we'd need the paints, brushes, etc. We'd make the campus look like so much fun :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 93 ✭✭breedie


    why don't we really go for it and put some plaster on the internal walls of the main building? :)
    Or maybe we could roof the SU courtyard so that it's usable when the students are actually here? One of those slidy-roof things like the Millenium Stadium in Cardiff.
