Administrators need to find a home for the Castle's community service program no that Psi Upsilon is moving in. The University knew the likely outcome in April and should have developed a contingency plan for the Castle's current residents. And since students need to make housing decisions early in 1998, CSLLP needs to have a home by then. Whilesome officials have discussed moving CSLLP to the west end of campus, there simply isn't an adequate facility to house the program. The high rises are not a viable option because of the lack of meeting and activity space. The Castle's annual haunted house for local kids would not have the same effect in a high-rise lounge. Administrators should try to find a place on Locust Walk for CSLLP since the program is a symbol of the Penn's community service Program. It should be displayed prominently for prospective students to see one of the many options for community service that exist on campus. Two possibilities as a new home for CSLLP are the buildings housing the Management and Technology Program and the Penn Colonial Center. Those offices don't necessarily need to be on Locust Walk, and the University could convert the building back into housing for students. But regardless of what the University decides to do, administrators need to act quickly. The program is a vital part of Penn's community service and needs a centrally-located, new home soon.
