I can tell you from being at GSU that they have no plans to immediately demolish the building. We’re talking at least a decade or more down the road (if at all). With the new science center, all sorts of space is being freed up in Kell, which means that they’re putting in new teaching labs and classrooms in there to maximize every square foot of campus. Kell is so solidly built and is buttressed by at least one building (which may depend on Kell to help hold it up) that it wouldn’t be demolished — it would have to be deconstructed.

I totally forgot about that until I read this. I had a cultural anthropology class in Kell Hall and remember how weird that building was, and apparently still is!

There is a tiny post office in the building as well! Would have loved to have been on one of those office chairs–eeek!

oh, let us not fail to mention it’s absurdly tiny elevators and awkward classrooms. and yet, i really did enjoy that building.
