Dear subtext,<\/span><\/p>\n

Can anyone who saw this kind of behaviour from doors [see article on weird door behaviour in subtext 165] let me know which ones? Most of the access controlled doors are supposed to fail open, especially those on fire routes.<\/span><\/p>\n

I’d like to investigate ones not doing the right thing if they’re ours,<\/span>
\nor pass them over to Facilities if they’re somebody else\u2019s.<\/span><\/p>\n

Dear subtext,<\/span><\/p>\n

I have been grateful for your coverage of the spine remodelling project, as well the various questionable and expensive projects that the University has taken on in past year. Given this, I thought you might be interested to see this pamphlet (http:\/\/tinyurl.com\/yc7txqw5) that me, Joey French and few other disabled comrades produced, written to spread information about and critique the remodelling project currently underway on campus. (It cites your newsletter as well.) They have already been distributed at Fresher’s Fair Part 1 and to school tours; people seem interested to know the full extent, expense and effects of the project, and we intend to continue distributing throughout this term.<\/span><\/p>\n

Keep up the good work,<\/span><\/p>\n
