Christie, who will be 105 on October 24, toured the campus on Saturday afternoon with her daughter Elizabeth Thompson and son-in-law David Thompson. Christie visited her alma mater "about two or three years ago, but we just drove around campus and didn't get out to see anything," Elizabeth Thompson said.

Columbia's sidewalks could be widened, adding beauty By Ralph Waggener Just thinking out loud . . . what if our sidewalks where widened by using solid bricks with a sand base to widen and beautify the sidewalks? A small ditch digger could ready the ground with a sand base. I don't know if this makes any sense and may be cost prohibitive. The bricks would help in walking and most of our existing sidewalks are a little too narrow. Just a thought I had, thanks. - Ralph Roy Waggener 2015-10-13 08:43:10 | Comments | Printable version
