So how is Student Housing going to deal with the 3,000 freshmen that live in the residence halls without Hashinger?
Diana Robertson, associate director of Student Housing, said the department issued 350 Intent-to-Return cards to upperclassmen at the beginning of the semester who wanted to return to the residence halls. The cards guarantee upperclassmen a space in the halls.
space in the hall Robertson also said Student Housing created "Home Away from Hash," a program that would house students who wanted to live in Hashinger in one or two floors of McCollum Hall next fall. She said the students who chose this program would have priority to live in the

renovated Hashinger.
Contracts would not be issued to students interested in living in Hashinger until the spring of 2006.
Grosshans said the renovated Hashinger would have a food service area on the south wing of the second floor, as well as a coffee house for open mic nights. E's Express would be separate, but still available for students to order food to-go.

10 feet wide after renovations. Grosshans said there would be a new entrance with a staircase that led to outside the front of the building. He said a new stairway would comply with the fire marshal's requirement that a stairwell must exit to outside the building. Hashinger was not originally built this way in 1962.
"It's developed me more as a person than it has physically," he said.
Despite the loss of 85 student spaces and the writing on the walls after renovations, Grosshans said the focus of the building would still be on the creative arts.

"Even if their career path is different from this, they will have to interact with people no matter what they do," she said.

Students sign up for the program for various reasons. Urkoski said.
One student sought the help of Herrera when her workouts became boring.
"I'm pretty athletic, so I was hoping he could introduce me to more exercises." Hayley Dool, Ontario, Canada, senior, said.
Willing to help anyone
"If this continues, we may need to hire another trainer," she said.
But, unlike students, faculty and staff must pay $10 for each session with a trainer, Urkoski said.
Students such as Dool are an exception, Urkoski said. Students more in the middle of the road in exercise experience use the program almost as much as beginners.

But the program isn't just for students.
CONSTRUCTION PHASES
Waterline

Replacing the waterline to downtown will take three years to complete.The project will be completed in three phases.
Only one-way, north-bound traffic will be allowed on Massachusetts Street between Sixth and Seventh streets during construction, Stewart said. Part of Sixth Street between Tennessee and Massachusetts streets will also be closed temporarily, Stewart said.

Business owners said that the project would disrupt walk-in customers, parking and deliveries.

"There is no way around it," said Bob Werts, owner of Waxman Candles Inc., 609 Massachusetts St. "Any obstacles are going to cause less people to come by."

Construction will obstruct deliveries the most, said Chuck Magerl, owner of Free State Brewing Company. 636 Massachusetts St. Magerl said he often relied on daily food and beverage deliveries to operate his business. These deliveries will be much more difficult because of the construction. Magerl said.
Magerl said. The disruptions, the project is still a necessary improvement, Magerl said.
"Even though it's maddening to have construction occur, it's more frustrating to have unannounced, intermittent disruptions in the waterline," Magerl said.

Quinton's Bar & Deli, 615 Massachusetts St., has had a waterline break every few years, said Greg Mann, manager. Mann said he did not expect the project to affect business very much. If construction limited access to the front of the bar, he would consider using the bar's back deck as the main entrance, Mann said.
Matti said. The new waterline will be constructed of stronger, more flexible iron, Stewart said. This will help prevent deterioration and breaks caused by shifts in the ground, he said.
The new pipe also will be treated with a special coating that will protect it from rusting.
Kingsley said.
Kingsey said. Magerl said this would improve the duration of filters in his brewery because it would not cause as much mineral build-up. Free State Brewing Company uses about eight different filtration systems to brew beer and serve the restaurant, Magerl said.
"We've been dealing with these problems for years," Magerl said. "It will be a relief to have them be a thing of the past."

Werts said he also understood the necessity of the project.
"It will be tough, and it will affect business," Werts said. "But there is nothing you can do. You just have to go with the flow."
