Sorry I used the wrong name. The old K-Mart building is being used.

I am a healthcare professional trained in classrooms on the new TVC campus. Had I not been able to get my degree here in Fairbanks in healthcare, I would have gone into some other field, and the hospital would have had to hire outside workers to do my job at a higher, compensating wage. I took most of my classes in the old courthouse. It does not need much interior work, the building came with classroom sized rooms. It came pretty much perfectly equipped to be a classroom.
As for the exterior, we obviously have no alternative other than to replace the insulation and windows. I don't see how anyone can think that R4 walls would ever be sufficient. Of course they need to be replaced. Should it cost 8 million? I don't know, but has anyone insulated their house lately? I have, and it was very expensive.
Also, as a side note, the WAL MART building is not vacant. It is being used.

You're right. They should have let the polar bear, one of the deadliest predators in the world, continue to raid the village until it proved its lethality by attacking a human. Maybe you don't realize this is not the first time a polar bear has wandered south of its natural habitat. Nor is it the first time the people of Fort Yukon have had been visited by hungry bears. Maybe you would feel differently if the bear were outside the front door of your house.

newsreader- you are right. for someone like you to bring a child into the world would be wrong. You obviously have no understanding that bringing up a child is about more than money and ecological conservation. Do you wish you had never been born, and all the resources you have consumed could be back where they started? Someone brought you up. Are you even grateful?
On Unconditional love
