Ooh, yeah. Well that's awesome. That's a really great program and building from what I've gathered. I was almost going to move in there myself before I decided on Broadway.

It is a lovely campus. It's great because it is situated in the heart of downtown Portland. Thus it has a great environment for education, great buildings, several blocks of pure park in the middle of it (called the Park Blocks). Sometimes the classes can get old, but that is how school goes, right? Just being on campus can be relaxing though, chilling in the Park Blocks reading, writing, drawing, doing your thing, heh.

Yeah, it is only about six Max stops and seven blocks from the hotel Kumoricon will be in this year (sounds like a lot but it is not very far at all), heh

And then of course it's where Kcon Lite is! lol

Yeah, it is pretty awesome. I heard a while back that someone was pushing to do away with the fareless square though. It'd be pure evil to take it away, but I haven't heard anything else about it, so I hope it just died out.

I think it was Trimet who wanted to push a fee for using the MAX lines in Fareless square after 7 PM to "reduce crime" but a lot of people were against it so they dropped it

Ah, I can understand their reasoning for it then, but I can also understand the frustration over it. It's good that they decided to deploy more police patrols for the Max trains now, though, instead of adding that fee. Seems like a better idea.
