Dorr street by campus has been looking cleaner since Corpus Christi has bought and torn down a couple of old commercial buildings. Also, Jimmy Johns and Papa Johns (any relation?) have moved side by side a bit closer to campus. With the student population greatly shifting to the south side of campus...that whole strip needs redeveloped into something cool.
I walked through the new Ottawa House East/West dorms for the first time this week. I'm really impressed, they put a trendy looking new coffee shop in as well, open to the wee hours of the night.
In any case, UT/MUO administration is thinking of a new name for main campus. Go here to give your input.

Aaron,
I wanted to make sure you saw this:

I was cleaning out some scraps of paper and came across one where brainstorming about what would make College Town on Dorr Street rock:
* Indie music store like Rama Llama
* Book store with lounge seating, wifi, cafe
* Eatery such as Maxwell's or Frogtown Jonnies that offers live entertainment
* Test prep / Testing Center (e.g. Kaplan)
* Ice creamery
* Head shop (Happy Badger!!)
* Japanese (Fuji Yama)
* Employment service catering to college students part time and full (private, not run by school administration)
* Dance club
* Food coop (e.g. Pheonix)
