Penn State would not be Penn State if in your daily walk from class to class you didn’t come across at least one construction project on campus. One of the main reasons I chose to come to this school is because of Penn State’s great respect for modern, clean classroom buildings. I can’t tell you how many schools I’ve visited that have had rundown, decrepit buildings. Furthermore, why would you be showing me this on a tour?? Don’t you have any better maintained buildings than this? At that point, you don’t even want to see the dorms. I can tell you that many people do appreciate the quality of structures here on campus. I gave tours for Undergraduate Admissions for a summer, as well as tours of the Business Building, and I received many compliments from people regarding the classroom buildings (we showed Thomas Building for Undergraduate Admissions). I write this after passing the renovation projects of Ferguson and Borland on my way to the two-year-young business building, next to the new forestry and food science buildings, only to see the Law School being built in the distance.
