“I look forward to a time that I won’t get to experience, and you won’t either. But decades down the road where other people will look back and see that in this moment, this community did what it was called to do.” Those were Dr. Randy Lowry’s concluding words as he introduced the layout of Lipscomb 2016, his vision of what Lipscomb University will look like in five years, to the student body at The Gathering on Tuesday, March 29. “We’re going to call it Lipscomb Next: Vision for 2016,” Lowry said. “The essence of this entire plan is to invest $125 million into this institution by the time we get to our 125th anniversary, which is 2016.” Lipscomb invested about $54 million into their last plan, making the proposed $125 million dollar investment into their next plan “extraordinarily ambitious.” Notable additions to expect Lipscomb to make in their next plan include: three new colleges, fifty new full time faculty members and thirty new academic programs. Some of the changes that Lipscomb will be undergoing will take years to develop. However, Lowry stated a couple of significant changes are set to take place in the very near future. One change being the renovation of Fanning Hall. “As we think about residence halls, we realize that they are not at the standard that we would like,” Lowry said. “The city’s approval pending, Lipscomb is set to gut out and renovate Fanning Hall this summer. Thanks to a construction crew committing to working on the project 24 hours a day that summer, a renovation that would normally take nine months...

Lipscomb parking tickets– we’ve all had them. But did you know that Campus Safety will take other measures if you are parked in a non-designated parking spot? Students have been called out of class to move illegally parked cars, and some students received phone calls from their parents saying campus safety and security contacted them. “Last week I had four missed calls from campus safety telling me they would tow my car if I did not move it,” said Brynn Petrey, a junior Nursing major from Memphis. “I was in class all day, and think my studies are more important than moving my car that wasn’t obstructing traffic.” Patrick Cameron, assistant director of campus security and safety, listed some things you should know before you park illegally at Lipscomb. “It is a very rare occurrence that we will pull people out of class or call them,” Cameron said. “Generally that happens when one of two things happen: someone has parked illegally in a space that has been reserved for a specific named guest, or someone has parked in one of the senior administrator spaces over by Crisman.” The Lipscomb traffic and parking regulations state the instances in which Campus Safety is permitted to tow you–and they will. Never park in a fire lane, by fire hydrants, or where you’re blocking dumpsters or traffic. This could result in your vehicle being towed at your own expense. Campus Safety can also tow your car “where deemed necessary.” Other than these instances, officers will usually write a ticket and move on. But beware, parking tickets can add up fast. The penalty amount usually...
