Current and prospective Baker students can expect to see a campus that continues to grow to meet and exceed students' needs, Fuller said. The improved library will add more technology and increase access to both computers and additional research resources. Additionally, Baker and Baldwin City have partnered up to widen and improve Sixth Street, adding sidewalks on both sides of the street between Chapel and Grove streets. According to City Administrator Larry Paine, once the project is complete it will allow better access to campus and a smoother route around campus. According to Fuller, the summer crews are scheduled to improve the heating and air conditioning systems, add lighting and furniture to rooms, replace doors and test the fire-alarm systems.
Some students are concerned with the parking situation on campus.
Fuller contends that parking is not that much of a problem, considering other schools' situations, especially at the University of Kansas, where parking places are at a premium. It will help once the parking at Parmenter is opened up again. Parking spots are available on campus, they just aren't in ideal places for students.
