'Save Webster Hall' campaign is misguided

To the Editor:

The recent SA drive to "save Webster Hall" is misguided. I enjoy events such as the Natalie Merchant concert as much as anyone, but is a shame that a building as beautiful as Webster sits empty so much of the time. Its close proximity to Baker Library would make it a logical home for Special Collections.

In addition, the Student Assembly should have debated this much earlier since plans to house Special Collections in Webster Hall have been in the making for a few years now.

What does it say about Dartmouth students that we protest a new library?
