    Art Building? That looks like Wilson Cafeteria.

    Couldn't imagine a retaining wall at the art building but knew "it" was being rennovated to become a part the business building.

    Had to laugh when I saw it was Wilson!

    Just to clarify a tiny bit - "it" (the old visual arts building, older library) is becoming the "Entrepreneurship and Innovation" building. There will actually be faculty from all over campus in there. There will be a significant business population also though. I think it will be a really cool building in a year or so. It won't actually be a part of the business building though.

    Now back to the retaining wall. I did see it being torn down (or falling down, not sure which).

    Is this to be a business incubator type setup?

    Ahhhh yes, Wilson Cafeteria.... I recall as a freshman eating those powdered eggs for breakfast and having to walk quickly back to Jenkins-Mac to get there "just in time". After about two breakfasts at Wilson one learned to leave them eggs alone!

    I always ate breakfast in Tolliver. Just one of their two pound, grease-laden donuts would hold me for the whole day.
