<p>ONGOING CONSTRUCTION </p>
<p>As you know, construction is a big part of life here at the Academy. While most bases and college campuses were built over a period of many years, the entire Academy was constructed essentially at the same time. That time was nearly 50 years ago, so the buildings, despite their pristine external appearance, are in need of repair. The administration building, Harmon Hall (my once and future office building), is shut down for massive renovation. It is now literally a mere shell of its former selfyou can see right through it. It will probably be another year until we get back in there. Now, another major construction project has begun: The dining hall, Mitchell Hall, is operating at about half-size for the next few months while the inside of the building gets its makeover. Not sure what the impacts will be on the cadets, but it will certainly cause some inconvenience.</p>
