UPDATE 3/29/10
HUNTINGTON, W.Va. (WSAZ) -- "This is a kinda home away from home for alumni."
That's according to Ron Area, chief executive officer of the Marshall University Foundation.
"What's unique about this floor is it symbolizes Marshall and the four words that represent Marshall -- pride, integrity, diversity and respect," he says.

This building actually looks really nice and I'm glad it was paid for from private donations (they've been working on this for YEARS). What I hate is the rec center, because they make EVERY student pay a membership fee regardless of whether they will be using the facility or not. This includes those who are handicapped and those who commute long distances.
