03.30.2009: Hello World

So today was the first day back from spring break. I was great to be back on campus, even if the weather was a little blustery today.

I spent the day helping to get the word out to students about the upcoming vote and about the need for space on campus. I had to take a break to go to class, which is in the South Classroom, and I was once again reminded of Metro’s need for a home.

Don’t get me wrong, I don’t mind the South Classroom, but as I walked from one end of the campus to the other I couldn’t help but think about how nice it would be to finally go to class in a building that was Metro’s. It makes me think about the neighborhoods that are planned for our campus. 

It’s nice to know that there is a plan to update the campus, modernize the way services are provided to students, and to create a home for Metro State (beginning with the Student Success Building). It’s also nice to be helping spread the word about Metro’s proposal to raise the money to make the first investment in Metro’s future.

For those of you reading this, I want you to know that I’m here to answer your questions about the new building, the proposed bond fee, and anything else about Metro’s future plans for the campus. Post your questions below or click “contact” on the navigation tabs.

Cheers,

Jack
