    Spaced out: New visitor parking lot causes campus controversy

    Senior leadership decided this summer to convert the Hitch and Massey Performing Arts Center parking lot on 17th Avenue into a visitors-only lot this summer–thus closing its 43 spots to the students and faculty the lot once served. And many of them are not happy about it. “It’s a slap in the face to staff in particular,” said art professor Jim Meaders. Meaders teaches in the Leu Center for Visual Arts, one of the buildings affected by this decision; the others include the MPA

    New caf offers more options to meet student needs

    Buried beneath dust and debris of construction, the cafeteria in Belmont’s new $90 million building seeks to redefine university dining by offering more of what students want and need. Set to be completed in June, the new dining space will offer more diverse food options to around 1,000 students at a time– up from the 400-student capacity of the current cafeteria in the Gabhart Student Center.

    Sororities still seeking to resolve spacing issues

    As Belmont’s student population grows every year, so do its four sororities, and finding meeting spaces which adequately suit their needs has become a persistent problem. Danni Kosturko, former Panhellenic president and current senior member of Alpha Gamma Delta, voiced these concerns last semester at both the State of the Student Body and Vision 2020 Town Hall meetings. Provost Dr. Thomas Burns responded at the Student Body town hall, saying the use of the spaces operates on

    Against a celebratory backdrop of student and administration collaboration, approximately 20 student demonstrators gathered at the South Lawn Ribbon Cutting Ceremony Wednesday morning to protest former resident assistant Danny Zydel’s firing and broader issues permeating the university. “We want transparency,” said freshman protester Sam Britt.

    SGA holds open forum meeting to hear student Vision 2020 concerns

    Seven students voiced their concerns to student government Monday night on how the increase in enrollment coupled with a lack of space on-campus is negatively affecting student organizations and Belmont as a whole. About 20 non-SGA students attended, the most at any congress meeting this semester. Monday’s meeting followed a week of extended office hours, a measure implemented by SGA to meet with students one-on-one. This was done to hear individual student concerns in light

    Fisher says he made a “mistake” using word “segregation” at Vision 2020

    University President Robert Fisher visited members of the Black Student Association Friday morning in a special closed meeting to discuss comments he made at the Vision 2020 Town Hall. “We talked about Vision 2020 and my mistake in using the word, ‘segregation,’” Fisher said in an interview Friday afternoon. At the Vision 2020 Town Hall on Monday, Fisher was asked if the university would consider adding new historically black Greek organizations to campus. There is currently
