[QUOTE="Illinnoying Orange, post: 1226991, member: 34679"] Very much agree. As u said, change is inevitable. But that doesn't always mean for the better. I believe the direction campuses like the U of I is heading in only further divide the haves from the have nots ... And that is unfortunate. I was an athlete in a non revenue sport during the mid 80's and there is no way I could've gone to college, let alone earn a degree, if not for that scholarship. Maybe because of that, I always appreciated the mom and pop places that were more my comfort zone. I hate when I see places like DeLuxe, the White Horse Inn, Mabel's, Cochrane's, Trito's, the Illini Inn, etc go by the wayside to make room for big money places catering to the spoiled, silver spoon crowd. Would've much rather seen a continued mix of the two types of establishments. [/QUOTE]
