Heh - I know where Allyson shops.
At the Auntie Buy store?

How 'bout the, "this dorm was designed by a guy who used to design prisons" and "this dorm was designed after the '60s to make it harder for students to occupy/protest."
The most convincing variation of this that I've heard is that one of the dorms at Trent University was designed without bathrooms. And seriously, to walk down a corridor from one end of the building to another, you went through three bathrooms, because they were in the corridor with swinging doors on each end.
Yep. I made untold Auntie Buys there, but finally had to give up - too many nieces and nephews.
From Snopes:
The Homer Babbidge Library at the University of Connecticut at Storrs has been plagued with problems since its erection in 1978, suffering from a bulging brick facade and concrete floors sagging under their own weight. Five different contractors worked on those walls, and a common suspicion was that the concrete used in the floor pour had been watered. Engineers and architects blamed the problems on design flaws, substandard materials, and shoddy workmanship; meanwhile, the edifice underwent an $18 million repair project in 1995 to correct its problems.
DX:
However, the library at UConn apparently did have a problem with bricks falling out of it's facade, but that was just bad workmanship.
I was at UConn from 93-96, and the library was the biggest campus joke around. It was under constant construction and covered in scaffolding the entire time I was there.
We believed both the "too heavy with books" theory and the "shitty contractor workmanship" theory.

I love the name "Homer Babbidge Library". Enough so that even without having been there, I'm sorry to hear that it's a piece of shit.
