Engineering Students Draft Plan for CEIE Building “Upgrades”


Before the new CEIE building opens its doors, a group of students are vowing to do some reconstruction to make the new student area feel more like home.

 

Sources say that students are plotting to give the building a new red paint job and reduce its size to a more manageable and comfy area. The movement comes 52 years in the making from when the old Little Red Skulehouse was demolished. The old Skulehouse was a quaint three-story building and played a large role in the shaping of the U of T Engineering community.

 

It is currently unknown how the students plan to reduce the size of the new building, which is going to be eight stories tall. Some suspect that explosives will be used, while others speculate the traditional method of a crane and wrecking ball.

 

Along with reducing the size of the building and painting it red, students also plan to remodel the interior of the building in an effort to make it fit with the more traditional times. Early blueprints show that the new Little Red CEIE Skulehouse will have plenty of space for wall murals reflecting Skule spirit and all of twowomen’s washrooms.
