IV bar to be added to Gordon Commons
It’s not hard to see that Gordon Commons has been suffering. In a recent press conference held by the Gordon Commons Association Board (GCAB), the Deece’s most pressing issue was finally addressed: the wait times.

But higher-ups have heard the cries of student discontent and, in a rare display of administrative agility, have implemented an exciting new station almost overnight.
