You ask me what I would do if I were president of Southern Arkansas University. Well, I ask you if it would be in the best interest of Southern Arkansas University for me to be president. I’m not the kind of person who believes in stifling the free will of students when they pay thousands of dollars to attend my school.
I would lift a lot of the rules that most schools put on their students: no drinking in the rooms, no smoking on campus, and no co-ed rooming. If you’re the legal drinking age, then go ahead and drink on campus. If you’re under the legal drinking age, then you might want to stay away from it or learn how to hide it really well. I would fight the no smoking on campus rule because I feel that people have the right to smoke if they want to. I would at least designate a small place or build a smokers “shack.” I definitely do not agree with no co-ed rooming. But, if a couple who has been together for a certain time period wants to live together, then I say why not. I would more than likely place an added fee for such a thing; I wouldn’t make it so they can’t be with each other. Everyone knows that for most people who go to college, that’s where they find their future spouses.
I would do some good things for the school as well. I would definitely expand the programs so that you can get your Ph.D. while you’re here. I find it completely tedious that you have to go to one college and get so far only to have to go through the hassle of transferring to another school to go any further. I would make it so that students on campus had first shot at on-campus jobs, not people off the campus; also, students who lived on campus would have first pick of classes starting with Honors students, then freshmen, then seniors, then juniors, and finally sophomores.
I do not think I would be a very good president for Southern Arkansas University because the bad I would do would severely outweigh the good. I would end up running Southern Arkansas University into the ground.
