Being president of an university is hard from what I heard from Dr. Rankin, but the things I would do for this University are quite differently from what he is doing. There are a couple things I would do that he has not.
First I would renovate the old dorms that are on campus already. Yes, Rankin did fix Harrod’s roof but the inside is still crummy. I would tear down the old walls inside the rooms of Harrod to get rid of the mold that makes the rooms smell. Then fix the old heat and air systems because some still have some sort of black mildew coming from them. Not to mention new carpeting, that is a must, I would replace all old carpeting and put in tile instead because tile doesn’t smell if something is spilled and left on it. I have not been in all the other dorms but what I have heard from the other students, besides Bussey, Honors, and Fincher, the other remaining dorms need renovating.
Another thing I would do for this school is to increase the parking for the students, I know Rankin said he would add 60 more spots around the new MAC building, but he has blocked off a considerable amount for the baseball building that they are building now. You can’t take away 60 spots then add 60 spots, that’s not helping at all. I would take out the many 10-minute spots in some of these parking lots as well.
I would also move the dairy cow farm away from the school because they smell really bad, I would use the space out by the horse ranch for the cows. The smell probably would not drift through campus from there. And, I think there should not just be cows and horses, but chickens and pigs as well. I think that would open many opportunities for the ranch/farm veterinarians.
These are the things I would like to accomplish if I were the President of the University. I would think that the students would be more happy and content if these things were to be happening. I think the University would be in better shape.
