I think it starts with opening the hours WIDE OPEN on the current system for long enough and PR’d enough that people can actually use it. We’ll never know how many people would benefit from a better system when the one we have now has banker’s hours. Wee exaggeration there, but the point is true.

Went there for a semester and it was the first major event that pushed me towards aethism if that tells you anything.
I was there in early 2000s and the rules for attending were weird, like you had to dress formally and you weren't allowed to go to movie theaters.
I played World of Warcraft on a laptop in the student break area and I got a lot of dirty looks for it, even though I played with no sound and kept to myself. I think they just disagreed with video games entirely.
Every girl I met tried to get into a very serious relationship with me very quickly and I was not in a place to settle down. I heard lots of rumors of people going there just to find someone to marry.
On top of that, the church I was attending and had given me scholarships started having a bunch of bad scandals get uncovered. Like really bad stuff.
Anyway, I didn't come back for the 2nd semester.
Dunno how it has changed in the last 20ish years, not much from looking at the outside.

I feel like the aesthetic there would be good for like a post-apocalyptic video. It looks just odd enough to pull it off.

I got an old friend who is a realtor here. Michael Rice. I'd trust him with any of my family members to do right by them.

Wut
I'm a leftist gun enthusiast and just... wut. I'm a minority and feel safer with a gun. I practice safety with it, train with it, and my kids don't even know it exists. It's stashed away in a safe and private location. But when I fear I might be hate crimed in a situation I like to have it on me, unloaded because nobody expects a trans person to be carrying a firearm and that alone could save my life. There are millions upon millions of guns in the US and, relatively speaking, very very very few are used for gun violence. Like a hundredths of one percent, if not fewer.
Yes. Gun violence is a problem. There should be reasonable protections. But overall gun bans are not the way.

I'm over 50 and have lived in the area all of my life.
It's never not been creepy.

Depends if you’d prefer it above or under ground…..there also could be a simple streetcar system too

I know it's silly to have that many similar schools in such a small area. But here's more than you ever wanted to know about these schools:
BBC
Baptist Bible College, located on Kearney St. Established 1950, part of Baptist Bible Fellowship International. Not the Southern Baptist Convention that most people think of when they think of "Baptists." Still operational (barely, I hear).
CBC
Central Bible College, bible school located at Norton and Grant, across from the fairgrounds Established 1922, part of the Assemblies of God. Closed (merged with Evangel)
Evangel
Liberal arts school (with some bible programs), located on Glenstone north of Chestnut. Established 1955, part of the Assemblies of God. Still operational with 2,000+ students.
​
You're welcome! 😉

They did find a buyer like 4 years ago. Some Korean church org. But they haven't done much with the land and haven't even removed the old signs.
Edit: Here's a story from the time of purchase, if anyone cares.
