I just got this email this morning. I hadn't heard that BYU was tearing down the Deseret Towers buildings. I lived in Q hall in the early 90's.

A Memory of Deseret Towers

As a service of the BYU Alumni Association, we are offering a piece of your BYU
history. Our records indicate you are a former resident of Deseret Towers. As
you may know, several of the towers have been torn down, and we have salvaged a
limited number of the buildings' bricks.

If you are interested in obtaining one of them-at no charge-you may get one by
coming to the reception desk at the Knight Mangum Building, the temporary home
of the Alumni Association.

Regardless of whether you come by for a brick, we hope you have fond memories of
your stay at Deseret Towers.


I'm not sure a brick would help me recall any fond memories...at least they're not charging for them. Did anyone else get this email, and if you did, are you planning on picking up a brick?

I lived in Heritage Halls so I guess I don't get a brick.

Are you going to request your brick? It would make a nice conversation piece.
