As I sit here at my work computer dripping in sweat, I cannot begin to imagine how hot the movers have been these past few weeks. In case you haven't been around the Lower Mainland, we're in a heat wave that's comparable to the one I experienced in Israel this past May! Conveniently, this is when the Law School has planned the BIG MOVE!
Our lovely "Curtis" building (named after the first dean of UBC Law) has been the home to UBC Law for the past 30 years. I'm sure it was a lovely home in the seventies and probably the eighties as well. But come the 21st century and this home was more of a shack, a shack that didn't have enough computer outlets, looked like a cement bunker and necessitated blankets and down vests in some of the classrooms during winter.
The Law School has successfully fundraised millions of dollars to build us a new mansion! So Curtis is going down and we're moving to University Centre Lower Level (next to the Rose Garden, with a view of the ocean, and almost enough outlets for our computers!) for the next two years. All information pertaining to the move can be found here: http://www.law.ubc.ca/current/move_info.html
If you have any questions on avoiding dehydration, UBC Law or anything else give me a call (604) 827-3552 or email orientation@law.ubc.ca
