Surprised there is still nothing planned to fix the Turner Center. May be the worst student fitness facility offered by a major university in the country.

There have been talks about expanding it, but there is already so much construction in that area. I think they want to wait on it some. Chucky needs a round a bout because it gets so backed up

That was what shocked me too. The areas that needed the most improvement on campus were dorms, the union, and the turner center. We will have built eight new dorms in the past decade and will have a very nice Union, but no word about a new place to work out for students.

Physical fitness is not a priority in Mississippi. Color me shocked.

Anderson, Shoemaker, and Hume need some work. They will be an eyesore compared to all of the nice buildings they are surrounded by

Truth. Even if it's just make up on a pig, the buildings that surround the Grove and Circle should be flawless from the outside

Not a fix but an alternative:

South Campus Recreation Facility

To accommodate a growing student body, Campus Recreation plans to build a new facility. The South Campus Recreation Facility, near Whirlpool Trails, will include renovating the old Whirlpool factory building to house about 100,000 square feet of recreation space unique to Ole Miss. This area will also include a transportation hub and parking services.

True, there is a lot of construction already on the road, I never thought about that. I guess that's a reasonable excuse, but the place still is comically bad.

That's interesting. Really, all the Turner center needs is more space, and this would technically alleviate the issue. Wonder what the specifics of what will be offered will come out to be. Either way, I'll prolly be gone by the time its done.

Just think of how awesome a faculty could be built in the whirlpool building. 100,000 square feet of exercise activities plus the trails whirlpool trails right there. That would be so amazing
