The Tavern just wasn't inconvenient enough. (THEE) American University is apparently spending $1.5 mil (which doesn't seem so bad when you think of it as 15,000 unmarked Benjamins) to renovate the place. Fortunately, for those students who already loved waiting 23 minutes for their grilled-chicken-cheese-quesadilla-no-way-in-fuck-we're-
remembering-to-give-you-fries-beef-steak, AUSG is here to let you have it your way.
According to an interview from The Eagle:
The updated plans aim to keep people out of the Tavern while en route to Butler Pavilion and other parts of Mary Graydon. Elmore said the doors that separate the Tavern from Butler will be alarmed, prohibiting free movement from the stairwell by the bookstore into the Tavern.
I don't know what I can't wait for more: a) losing my favorite way to stay out the rain, or b) having to listen to fellow undergrads bitch about how paying $43k a year entitles them to walk wherever the hell they want. "Cause come on, I don't pay $43k a year to... (insert whatever likely injustice is currently burdening the predominantly white upper-class student body of AU)"
I guess the few bright spots are the new "mood lighting" in MGC and it seems the plans for the remodel have uncovered some things UN weapon inspectors couldn't.

Apparently your $43,000 a year education still has you spelling fortunately as "fortunetly." Shape this ship up; you are making AU look bad.
You're right. On the list of AU embarrassments, I would have to put myself somewhere below Ben Ladner, but certainly above the Karl Rove riots.
