Post subject:  UCA's Christmas Wish List
1. A President who actually knows how to lead a university. Not one that just funnels money into things hoping that it will fix them. One that actually understands what is involved in growing a university the right way! Not one that simply brings in more students without the infrastructure in place to handle them. How about a president that is open and honest with the faculty, staff, and students and does not dust things under the rug or keep secrets that can potentially harm the university. How about a president who is not a politician! Can we get a president who understand that things need to be done a certain way for a reason, maybe because that is the law or that is they way they are supposed to be done. Not one that goes and does things the way they want, one that will go through the proper channels with the utmost transparency!

2. While we are at it, how about a new Board of Trustees. Might as well start with a clean slate!

3. More parking... :lol:

4. An expansion of Estes Stadium.

Feel free to add to this list in any way you see fit!

How about 7 more home games for 2009! I'm getting spoiled, and with what looks to be brutal travel-wise next season (@ Hawaii, @ McNeese State, @ SHSU, @ SELA, @ Northwestern St,), I could use a few more home games!
But if we're also still going to play UAPB in Little Rock (considered a "road" game), that would make 6, so 6 home games would be all we would get. Right?

GO BEARS!!!

I want two live Bears living on campus in a picturesque enclosure. :lol:


Maybe we could use that to spur on the state's first veterinary program. :shock:

Josh,

I'm sry but thats really you have to bring that all back up!!I'm not going to get into it with you but I figured you were a bit better than that! I guess not...

As for the live bears wish, I was told by a very credible source over the weekend that they are trying to train a Bear to have for next season. So we can have it run onto the field...

Anyone else heard about that?

I'm not bringing anything back up, I am simply making my opinion on the matter known. I think it is a sad day when an alumnus of a university can't make his feelings known without being bashed by other alumni simply b/c they don't share the same opinion. After what happened you would think people would realize that sweeping things under the rug and hoping they go away doesn't work, but I guess not...

Josh, I have no problem with you whatsoever in bringing it up. It's real life people. It ain't going away until satisfaction is attained by either the media, alumni, the community, or all three. We trusted someone, we were misled, and we as a university have been embarrassed. If you're going to gloat about the good things involving UCA then we are also going to have to somewhat hang our heads about the bad things.

If you don't let the people in charge know that you are pissed then how can we be assured that it might not happened again in some other degree? Records are still being FOIed so I say let's get it all out in the open now so we can find a place in there somewhere to start healing. I'd rather the scab be jerked all at once as opposed to being pulled a little at a time.
