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.

Some of my classes were in another "classy" building which you guys might have forgotten - the Rayen school, next door to the YWCA. However, it was an improvement over CWH.
The following year, we were spoiled (by moving into the brand new engineering building). I will stop now before getting kick out of the site for all these non YSU sports discussions.

My very first class at YSU was at Rayen, 1971, Helen Van Gorder I believe.
I know it has been a while for me but I am impressed with the changes.

I think I had her for English 101 also. I believe it was in the Jones Hall, home of the English department.

1AA started this thread talking about campus improvements so I think we are "clean" with non-sports, until he moves the thread
Rayen was too far gone for the HS students, so they sold it to us! Yes I did forget! Ever have a gym class at the Y downtown? Another joke.

Gee, I forgot all those gym classes @ YMCA downtown.
I remember that for couple of semesters I had a class in another classy building which housed the school of education. The building previously housed the Elm Road Elementary school. That building was, at the time, the most Northern building on campus.
I only had 10 min between classes to run to the gym class @YMCA, the most Southern building. Heck, since I could do that, passing the gym class was never a problem.

Speaking of bars, they are building one on campus I believe. Also a tattoo shop is opening on Lincoln. Kinda ironic as JT is our school president lol.....

Yes, the building housed the old bar "Tony's hide away" on Elm Road was demolished couple of years ago. The old Burger King on Elm is now Hot Heads. The two eateries on Lincoln were splitted into 3 spaces. 1 of the 3 became Jimmy Johns. The 2nd one became the tatto shop. The middle one was University Pizzaeria which was closed couple years ago.
