Sacred Heart continued from page 1 Sacred Heart spokesman Brian Terret said it will probably be about three years before the University area will even notice a change tak ing place. Some of the pre-1971 buildings will be completely re moved for structural reasons. “It’s nearly impossible to retrofit these buildings to earthquake stan dards,” Terret said. Construction on the North Eu gene site will begin in 2002 and be completed sometime in 2006, ac cording to PeaceHealth. “Fortunately, the transformation won’t start for a couple of years,” Wilt said. “It will give us the time to adjust our tactics accordingly. We’ll definitely have to more aggressive ly market to corporate and business customers.” Along with hospital employees, visiting friends and family some times spend their waiting time in the shops on 13th Street neighbor ing the hospital. “People come here [from the hos pital] when they’re waiting... to buy a book or a card,” tova stab in, co manager of Mother Kali’s Books, 720 E. 13th Ave. “We get some business, but it’s not our main business.” One man who regularly visited the store during his wife’s appoint ments at Sacred Heart was remem bered fondly by stabin. “He would come in every time his wife had a dialysis appointment and buy himself a mystery book,” she said. Employees at the nearby fast food restaurant Subway, 1304 E. Hilyard St., said as much as 60 per cent of the company’s lunchtime clientele comes from employees at the hospital. Fortunately, the transformation won't start for a couple of years. It will give us the time to adjust our tactics accordingly We'll definitely have to more aggressively market to corporate and business customers. Mike Wilt restaurant manager, Excelsior Inn At Smith Family Book Store, Evon Smith said she regularly sees the hospital employees and pa tients’ friends and families, but she thought that might change. “We definitely see as part of our customer base both workers and patients,” Smith said. “But a lot of people who don’t live or work right here tend to avoid the University area.” R. Ashley Smith Emerald OML employee Judi Fox walks by the current location of the Sacred Heart Medical Cen ter on 13th and Hilyard. ADFC continued from page 4 to create a fight for seats between students and the general public. Greenough said that right now, “there’s no danger of that.” During the school year, about 6,048 foot ball seats are reserved for students, plus 50 extra for children of stu dent-parents. Walton said that although the ADFC and Athletic Department have different agendas, they will find a sufficient compromise. “We need to generate more money and students want more seats for less money.... That’s nor mal,” she said. Although negotiations are still underway, Greenough said the Athletic Department has relied on the ADFC’s “good faith” to work on getting the funds back up to 50 percent of market value. She added that the ADFC trusts the Athletic Department is work ing for the students’ best inter ests. “The committee recognizes that the Athletic Department is making attempts to get the best option for both the Athletic Department and the students,” she said.
