Preservation is important, and in this case, already agreed upon. No! Keep these Brown Houses standing.

That area has historic and natural value - trees in the midst of concrete - neither is replaceable.

I lived at 3Gilbert Road as a student and Delta Zeta. Faculty row is an important part of Greek history at UConn and has great sentimental value as well as historical value.

I worked in one of those faculty buildings years ago when it housed government relations and the attorneys office. Lot of history there. History is worth preserving.

While the University must build and modernize to remain a first-rate institution, failure to recognize the importance of it's history is a grave error I. Judgment.

Stop lying to people and do what was promised. It would be great to hold this history and do something with the structures, perhaps a museum of sort to represent the history of the school as well as the area. I know these buildings can be utilized for the school in one fashion or another!!

When it became Connecticut Agricultural College in 1899, the University, through its leadership, promised to name its first library for the Storrs family. It didn't. In the late 1940s, they promised to name a student union for alumni. They didn't. In the 1980s, they promised to name a new athletic Pavilion for students. They didn't. It is not surprising then to find a promise to protect the remaining Faculty Row houses is not being kept. I sign this petition in the hope that someone in the University's leadership will find a way to keep that promise.

A agreement is a agreement not meant to change and should remain in effect no matter UConn has changed enough of the landscape of campus and the town the to preserve

As both an undergrad and a grad student I often passed by the Faculty Row houses. I loved their architecture and felt a connection to the campus of a more intimate and personal UConn of an earlier time.

As a UConn grad (class of ‘93) I always associated faculty row with the history of the school, and am disheartened that the school is letting it go.
