My college, University of Maryland College Park, prided itself on not paving their walkways until desire paths were created. However, even though the buildings and walking configurations kept evolving, the paved walkways were set in stone. No more than a year after I listened to the orientation speech about the school doing this, I saw fences be put up next to Jimenez Hall to prevent people from taking the most direct route. People continued to step over or under the fence.
