In an effort to focus some of the discussion (as best as can be
expected) here's some extra information regarding this issue.
For a visual depiction of the "glass wall" plan:
http://www-tech.mit.edu/V125/PDF/N26.pdf
Look at the picture on the bottom left of the front page, that's
approximately what the new plan is going for.
Also, thank you to jhawk for his excellent journalism in this matter,
and Milo for taking a great amount of
initiative in the Senate.
All requests for information should go to Milo (tevin@mit.edu), as he
is the Senate appointed representative to addressing
the dollar bill issue, or to Andrew Lukmann (lukymann@mit.edu) or
Ali Wyne (awyne@mit.edu) who sit on the project committee
and are involved with the planning.
I urge everyone with an interest in the matter, either way, to
contact your Senate representative. We had a long discussion
with Phil Walsh tonight, and student input can be a great asset.
Steve Kelch
Senator from Fraternities
