I Hate Baker-Porter
Baker-Porter Hall is the most evil building on all of CMU’s campus. Its construction is proof of hell's existence. In order to graduate from the architecture program you have to successfully map Baker-Porter, no one’s done it yet.
Baker-Porter cannot decide if it wants to be Baker or Porter. Where does Baker end and Porter start? No one knows. The hallway is so long by the time you reach the other end you lose your will to live. Baker-Porter consumes the entire South side of the mall, and we let it get away with it. Soon it will try to take over Hunt, then Ansys, then Scaife, then Hamerschlag, then Roberts, then Scott, and finally it will come for my precious Wean. Do we really want the Baker-Porter-Hunt-Ansys-Scaife-Hamerschlag-Roberts-Scott-Wean building? NO. If we do not act now it will already be too late. When you come back to campus as an alumni every building will be Baker-Porter. Carnegie Mellon University will be Baker-Porter university. Imagine saying that you graduated from Baker-Porter University– lame. This is the future Baker-Porter wants, and we should be scared.
Baker-Porter wishes it was Wean. It will never be Wean. Baker-Porter will never have an ounce of Wean’s simplicity or tact. Baker-Porter is impossible to navigate. The walls on the A level of Baker are plastered with arrows directing you to rooms. There are very few rooms on Baker A, but the place is so terribly designed that massive amounts of signs are needed. Wean knows its place and doesn't try to annex the rest of the mall. Baker-Porter spreads across the mall like some invasive fungus. It is a colony of bacteria in the petri dish of this beautiful campus.
Why does every classroom contain the letter A in its name? Classes are hidden in weird tunnels and corridors and everyone is ok with this. This is not acceptable. Wean has beautifully named corridors and clearly distinguishable floors. Baker-Porter blends into one long deep hell floor. Baker-Porter is a Deitrich building cosplaying as a STEM student. Why is my Concepts lecture in Baker-Porter? This is because the administration feels bad for Baker-Porter and gives into its demands.
