UTA is trying once again to quietly close down the Bowling & Billiards! This is a link to an article published today in the Shorthorn:

They are trying to hide this fact behind a “renovation.” By “renovation” they mainly intend to move all of the Student Governance offices to the current location of the Bowling & Billiards. They claim that it will mean more exposure for “important student services”, but this comes at a cost of losing the only real place to hang out on campus!
Do not be surprised if they contend that they will move the pool tables so they can still be used by students. This still means they are going to close the B&B, and the B&B staff works very hard to keep both the pool tables and the bowling lanes in very good shape. If anyone has ever seen the pool tables in Arlington hall they know how bad of shape these tables will be in without proper care.
We need to fight this in order to save the Bowling & Billiards!
