Any ideas on Subject would be of interest.  In a way, what is being
suggested is the replacement of matter with energy.  However, the
actual space would be defined as virtual concept rather than physical
concept.  The goal is would be to reorganize the use of physical space
by the introduction of virtual space.  Some of the existing functions
of the existing space are, as follows: library, administrative offices,
faculty offices, computer laboratory, faculty offices, archives storage,
cadd and cad (design) studios, conference/seminar, duplication, woodworking
shop, spray room, and photography laboratory.  How can some or most of these
spaces be replaced or reorganized?
