    Loved the “sneak” preview of the Henry Madden library. Wow, what a facility it is!!! This is such a wonderful opportunity for Fresno State students to take advantage of.

    The coverage and reporting was insightful and fun. You have a very talented team of cameramen and reporters on staff. I look forward to viewing more “behind the scenes” activities at Fresno State!!!

    Keep up the good work….

    This video gets me very excited for the library to open up. I loved the behind the scenes (Whitney, again, amazing job keeping me interested). Keep it up :)

    Great clip! I can’t wait for the library to open! I’d love to see more sneak previews of the library as it doesn’t open for a month. I’d also love to see some more of the videos of other venues and activities around campus.

    Great job!

    Your news team did a great job- camera work, reporting and editing. Enjoyed the sneak preview of the library, very interesting and entertaining! Hope Fresno State students enjoy their new facility.

    Library now sucks if ya ask me. Why spend all those millions of dollars. I graduate this spring and one thing i learned is how to prduce great research and term papers without even stepping into a full blown library.

    Save the CSU system money. Adapt the check out system we had the past four years. We did it without the library we can keep going.

    true ‘Collegian Answer This’ —-I accomplished the college dream much like you did. The value of a library is probably up for debate. It’s money not well spent, but it does add to the glorious perception that students are hanging out near midnight debating Shakespeare, politics, and current affairs. Where would the university be without a kicka$$ library to go unused by the student population………………..
