These are class notes for Wed., Sept. 24. Mapping Day: Wet, overcast, annoyed, angry because it is so hard for me to get places with my balance and mobility issues. Ten things I noticed during the walk to and from Atkins: 1. Wet, overcast 2. Not able to keep up with supposed partner 3. Bricks around Belk bell tower need repointing.4. Carpet in Atkins is beige (what designer would pick a color like this for a high traffic area, not an experienced one!) 5. Carpet is extremely worn in high traffic areas. 6. Elevators are hidden and hard to find as well as too small. 7. There is lots of construction going on on campus. 8. Many of the shrubs along campus pathways are in the Holly ( ilex ) family, probably good choice because of their thorniness that limits the desire to make “cut throughs” and they are a hardy plant. 9. Pain and age are pretty challenging on a spread out university campus. 10. At least I know how to get to Atkins Library now and where it is.
