Alternative Proposals

The three alternative proposals, recently reviewed
by a panel of faculty members and other
interested parties, received a favorable reception.
"We feel the answers proposed by the students
are good answers," stated Mr. Foster, and that
"any one of the three is better than the one we
are faced with now."

Mr. Foster implied that possible local pressures
influenced the choice of the designer, who was
"not conscious enough" of all factors, "particularly
in social areas."
