Wow, I didn't realize that they were going to do THAT much. We're having an alumnae brunch on the 15th and I'm really looking forward to seeing it.

That's what I was thinking - that Amos would be up to code, not much more. I do miss the huge portrait of Thyros Amos in the lobby, though. I miss the whole lobby ambience.

But it was worth it!

Lol, if by ambiance you mean some crazy @ss security guard flipping out and screaming at us every day, sure I'll always remember how much the crazy wig lady who worked security would totally freak out after any Greek event when tons of us were coming back to the dorms. She'd be so busy screaming and ranting and calling campus police that we'd all just walk through the door and up the stairs to our suites.

Biggest question- did they replace the elevator??? That thing was disgusting. My dad still talks about how small and gross it was.

*sigh* The elevator is much the same. When I was in school, it was normal looking, and they had just closed the service elevator down (a larger one in the stairwell). Every sorority also had a storage bin in the basement during my freshmen year.

The lobby. We didn't have the neo-nazi security guards - the women who ran the desk were almost like housemothers. You could tell them that if so-and-so came, tell them you just left. There was also a sofa & chairs, so you really didn't have to take someone upstairs if you didn't want to do so. The portrait of Miss Amos was next to the elevator, and there was a demilune table under it, usually with flowers of some sort. If you got flowers sent to you, everybody in Amos Hall would know it. Maybe I'm romanticizing it (the sofa was kinda nasty), but I really, really don't like the security guards!

I wish I could go! But I did see a picture of the informal end, and there is a door now leading for the informal living room to the small bedroom! I really wish I could see it, especially with all the renovations. Please, please post pictures!
