<p>gd016,
I am looking at the pictures of Lerner Hall in [Columbia</a> News ::: A Virtual Tour of Alfred Lerner Hall](<a href=“Columbia News”>Columbia News)
and I am thinking this again looks like an academic building (like a modern engineering buliding) with way too many floors (8 floors). While It looks like a fairly functioning building that serves a lot of different purposes ( [Columbia</a> University : Alfred J. Lerner Hall : Inside Lerner : Departments and Hours](<a href=“http://www.columbia.edu/cu/lernerhall/departments/index.html]Columbia”>http://www.columbia.edu/cu/lernerhall/departments/index.html) ) and the architecture looks impressive, I don’t see this as a popular place for people to just chill, socialize, and hang out unless there’s an event happening. Looks like it doesn’t even have a game room. If you go to Columbia board, one of the most commonly cited negatives is the lack of social unity. The following is one of the examples:<br>

<p>If Lerner is happening, this poster wouldn’t need the library to be more social.</p>
<p>Norris needs improvement but I doubt the Columbia version is the answer.</p>
