Hope so the sewer system in that area is older than Tech. The fact that Arizona went right over the crest and was part of the old HWY that was there predating Tech is even funnier. When the built Harper and the Student Union they moved the road north about 10 feet

Senior project back when I was at Tech was a joint departmental student project for the DOE Solar Olympics, on how to make Tech more environmental. Since I was the bioengineering guy we had to go and dig up all the old plans to find out where all the utilities were underneath Tech. City Engineer in Ruston has all these if your really interested on what Ruston looked like back in the late 1800's

so. You made me curious. So I tried to find some old maps on the internet. No luck.
However, during the civil war, Lincoln Parish was actually Jackson Parish. Kinda interesting, eh?
Anyone else think it's bad that we've already regressed into these kind of discussions, and it's not even January yet?
It's going to be one heck of an off season. :rolleyes4:

Still can't believe they're still standing. I fiqured with Neilson's storied history, especially after that Pike did the header off the top of it back in the 80's, they would be anxious to knock it down.

City Engineer is responsible for maintaining all public works records.
If you want the geological outlay contact the USGS and request them. They'll issue you a computer generated map for the time frame requested, there is a substantial cost.

Interesting story. My freshman year they assigned me to Neilson. After moving in I took a quick nap, and was woke up a big cockroach who decided to come and say hello by running across my face. EWWWWWWWW. When I requested a new room, they stuck me in J-MAC, anybody seen the size of the roaches in J-MAC
Re: The Legend of the Bulldog
Maybe I'm having a bad moment... but what's J-Mac?
Maybe it's just a terminology not used anymore...

Jenkins-McFarland. Its the two dorms to your left when you pull in the HUT parking lot. Crazy place, when I was living there we had a water balloon and Oreo war there (ever been nailed with a chocolate Oreo). Quinnelly was staying there after his divorce and slept through the whole thing. Cops finally came to break it up and had to wake his lame butt up

I almost got kicked out of Tech for running across the roof of the entrance section between J & M.
