It was a gorgeous day up at SFU today. The sun was shining, the clouds were few, the sky was solid blue, and everything was so perfect that you'd forget it was the first day or March. However, the smell of tar filled the air in certain areas of the campus, and it's hard to ignore the noise of construction, the unsightly construction vehicles, half-made buildings, and the butt crack of your nearest construction worker. SFU is getting a major upgrade. UniverCity is happening big time.

UniverCity: The Community at Simon Fraser promises to enrich the lives of SFU students and create a living society up on Burnaby Mountain. To be honest, it's pretty cool! I took a flip through the UniverCity Development Guildlines which will give UniverCity a clean and simplistic look and feel. I'd be pretty excited to see what the campus looks like between now and 2010. It will give SFU the kind of environment it's always lacked and that UBC has always had. Change is good.
