This was a beautiful and dignified ceremony. Hats off to YSU for doing this!

Well, I guess that solves the state budget crisis! :)

I am voting NO on Issue 3.

Although I am troubled by the loss of revenue to surrounding states with casinos, the way to go about fixing this is not to make a bloated amendment to an already bloated state constitution. Let's ask (demand?) that the Legislature and the Governor jointly have the guts to address this issue head-on, draft appropriate legislation, and ensure that no city or region is denied the opportunity to get into the casino business if they want to.

And then let's join our surrounding states who have been able to move ahead, rather than getting mired in old-time Ohio politics.

This plan is both stupid and frightening. How in the world can they calmly announce that they are going to give us something we didn't ask for and then over-charge for it??

What's next? Will a furnace company show up at my door someday and say "we're here to install your new energy-efficient furnace" and then charge me thousands of dollars?

Whoever allowed this idea to move forward without killing it should be shown the door.

First Energy's plan doesn't sound like a very bright idea.

It will be interesting to see how this thread evolves. :)

I like this idea a lot. It's a far sight better than the now-infamous "great lawn" proposal a few years ago from some consultant who came to campus and announced that it was "over-treed." His proposal would have meant the death of many trees and the establishment of a bland central campus area. I'll take the planting of trees over the unnecessary killing of them any day.

I suppose it won't be long before someone posts something negative about the new signs, so I'll put in a positive note while I can. I am proud of our university, and I'm glad that its logo is now a part of the cityscape.

I agree completely.
