This town is deeply ill. It is afflicted with a terrible kind of wasting disease, a disease of artificially deflated ambitions. The sickness is attributable to a select few instigators with disproportionate power and influence. Whenever our town seeks to grow or change, these self-appointed gatekeepers attack. They obstruct, they whine, they complain, or worse yet they collude behind the scenes to sabotage development.

The exhibition features architectural models of two buildings currently in development: the Classroom and Office Building 3 and the Field Education and Research Center. COB3 will include a performing arts auditorium and two lecture halls. The Field Education and Research Center will be located adjacent to the Merced Vernal Pools and Grassland Reserve and provide a space for students and researchers to explore the local ecosystem.
