The end of an end!
DB
You're
thicker than eggnog
You're sweeter than ice cream
You're sticky like a sticky bun
You're spicy like a chicken wing
Goodbye
to the Dungeon, forever!!!
I'll
miss you, CCL
Even though you
Drove me away!
Can't
wait to see you all shiny and
New!
I
just wished sometimes CCL was open 24 hours a day!
Hey
CCL,
I remember when you were
a young spry virgin of a library.
Now you're an old hag…but hey.
Cya! Will miss ya!
Goodbye
old!
Hello new!
CCL
was such a wonderful experience
People, noise, (laughter) and wet rugs. Ahh!
Oh how they will be missed!
Pamela
MOLD
BE GONE
HOORAY FRESH AIR!

Voyage CCL!!
(GOOD RIDDANCE)
So
many wasted hours (frown)
Goodbye
CCL!
Will miss old CCL! Bring in the new CCL!
Will
miss the old
But awaiting the new!!
YOU OWE ME $10 IN QUARTERS!
Many
years of work happened here.
CCL
Rules!
Roses
are red
Violets are blue
CCL is the best
Of Yale's Old Blue
Farewell,
Here's to a beautiful rebirth!
Hope
the "new" opens on time
I
got so much done in CCL. What am I going
to do when its new and pretty and distracting?
It's
soooooooooo……..hard to say goodbye
To CCL………..but'll be absolutely spectacular
And exciting to say hello to the new and improved ?
Candi B. - CS - 2006 - smile
No
more dust balls the size of cats…..
It's
a sad occasion, but it will be worth it
In the end! Goodbye old friend! 2006
Thank you
Oh
60's poster art….where hath thou gone?
Out
with the old in with the new!!!
Thank God - May 2006

I
remember throwing plastic sheets over the books
In CCL back in the 70's - no more RAIN!!!!
Good-Bye CCL!
Naked
Pundits!
There's
water on the floor -
It must be raining outside!
What
stories the weenie bins could tell!
Dear
CCL:
We shared you with the students but really - you were ours!
We will miss you! Here's to the new CCL.
NO
MORE surveys!
No
more pizza or subs or spilled coffee!
Tall
lean fine as a steel beam,
I'm shy but one glance from your blue eyes makes me "sigh"
?
Oh I wish you knew how much I'd like 2 wrap my arms
around you………….
I
know for a fact, there were 11,700 linear feel of shelving
in CCL!
Woop
De Doo
CCL's gonna be new
Is this Haiku?
I
was hired to prepare you for demolition. No offense!
CCL
was the best!
I
will miss sleeping the carrels
