1998?? Should have seen it is 1967. West hall was an honest to goodness old army barrack and the basement at Clingan-Waddell was legendary!

Go Guiana, try 1966 when I was a freshman at Youngstown University, back then, also known as UCLA.

Wow I totally forgot about Clingan-Waddell Hall! I had my math classes there back in 62,63; it was eerie. The 3rd floor of the Main Building was extremely cramped with very low ceilings. All in all, it was a great place.

I had several math/engineering classes in the basement of Clingan-Waddell Hall. What an experience!
However, the temperature was comfortable.
Now, they regularly turned the AC off on the hot days (>85 degree) between 3-7pm. I had classes from 4:30 - 11 pm. The room temperature offen exceed 90 degrees at the beginning of the class. We had to continuously search for cooler rooms in the building. We moved from room to room 3-4 times through out the evening as AC gradually came back on after 8 pm.
The building is also energy efficient..... Which means the windows cannot be open.

I had a 4 hour calculus class Saturday morning in the basement of C-W hall. (3-1/2 hours trapped in that damn basement!) You should be glad your windows didn't open. Ours did, and the street dust came through the steet level grates down a 6' deep window well and driffed into the classroom! Oh, the good ol' days!
You guys knew the "mud lot" and all the parking issues then too! Started ate $150 per quarter, full time.
