Dahlgren said the Campus Center changes appear to be having an effect. Last year, we were kind of hoping for a place where people could really hang out and have fun. I didn't feel this was that kind of place then. But there are a lot more people here right now than I noticed most of last year. They're getting a better idea of how to use the building.
Entertainment is important.
On weekends, the movies shown at the Rose Hills Theatre are usually much more recent than those available in video stores. The theatre also has a video projector, allowing older, classic films to be presented as well. In September, a hypnotist drew an audience of several hundred to a show in the Edmunds Ballroom. Gerard says the building's uses are still evolving. A satellite dish installed last year offers extensive programming potential, such as teleconferencing, that is still to be realized.
