Oso planning to go pro
This was formally considered awhile back. It would be a traffic nightmare, not to mention campus is a lot safer when MUPD squad cars are constantly driving back and forth on Wisconsin Avenue.
1)Not gonna happen, 2)not a snowball's chance in Hell, and 3) when pigs fly.
1994 and 95. When I started at MU that was the big promise being made to us, that WI Avenue was going to be shut down. In 1995, the city council defeated it by one vote...the Alderman whose district included MU. The current set up is much better than it was in the 90's, as students really have to only cross at designated crosswalks. If we wanted to do bridges, what about sky bridges from existing/planned buildings? For example, the new business school to Olin. A D2 school that recruited me for athletics made a big deal out of having every building connected via sky bridge so students didn't have to go outside in the winter. Kind of like DT Minneapolis too. Thought I'm sure the costs for adding them existing buildings would be ridiculously high.

Not to mention incredibly ugly. Warriors are tough enough to walk a block or two in cold weather.
Right, but clearly not tough enough to live in McCormick Hall. Need a hotel-like experience.I think the sky bridges is a cool idea.
