Day 171: Almost two years in, and today’s all-staff training/community development event was the first time I set foot in the school’s gym. Partly this is because I have very little interest in most sports stuff. Partly it’s because last year sometime in a presentation about plans for upcoming capital projects (big expensive things like new buildings), the need for a new gym space was stressed in part because this building is in such poor shape it could spontaneously collapse at any moment. That’s paraphrased, and probably wasn’t put quite so starkly, but I wasn’t the only person who came away from that presentation with that impression, so it was darkly amusing that this was the chosen location to gather all of the college’s staff for this event.
Bonus shot: The entire ceiling is peeling apart and looks like this. Really made me feel safe! o.O
