Each week we talk with OU-C students to get their views on relevant topics. This week’s topic involves what changes each student would make and what he/she would keep the same if named king or queen for the day. Below are what some of the campus’ students had to say.
If named to a day-long monarchy position, Sage Sill, a social work major from Circleville, would focus on a few relevant aspects of campus life. “I would make a place for babysitting, to make it easier for students who are parents to study. Also, I would want more convenient parking or a shuttle system from the parking lots and make it easier to determine a major,” she said. There are also many aspects of the OU-C educational experience she would preserve. “I like the small classes and the ability to know the professors. Everyone seems like family.”
Stephen Flautt, a history major from Unioto High School, would make culinary offerings the centerpiece of his reign. “I would add steak and hamburger to the menu at the (Hilltop) café,” he said. “I would also like to see intramural sports on campus and another history professor. If we are not worried about how practical the suggestions are, I would like to see a covered walkway from the parking lot to buildings. I like the small campus setting and would keep it the same.”
Audrianna Dettwiller, an early childhood education major from Greenfield McClain High School, would take advantage of her office to ordain curbside parking on campus. It might make it even easier for her to begin her day with a jolt of java. “I love the Starbucks coffee and that classes are convenient. I would keep the back-to-back classes and time in between to study.”
For Josie Greenwell, a secondary education major from Fort Wayne, Ind., her royalty experience would include reduced costs for exercise. “I wish there were no charges for using the gym. I would also like fewer online classes and more in-person interaction. It is a very pretty campus and the faculty members are friendly. I would keep that.”
If she were given a crown, Christina Harris, an education major from Vinton County High School would make it easier to get plugged in. “I would have more electrical outlets in the Learning Commons and classrooms. There seems to be good collaboration between the library and faculty members, and I would improve that even more. I would also keep the buildings a little warmer in winter. I like the fact that classrooms have neutral colors and are not distracting.”
Josh Ware’s kingdom would include a shuttle service from the parking lots. “I like the easy access and that the classes are close together. The faculty members are good at what they do,” said the computer science major from Jackson.
In Buddy Barnes’ royal world, consistency is the key. “I like it here. Everything is relatively close, the professors are personable and it is overall inexpensive,” said the Adena High School graduate who is undecided on an academic major.
If elected king, Anthony Gilbert, a business management major from Chillicothe High School, would make some advances. “I would like to see more food varieties for students and maybe a food court, as well as more exercise equipment in the gym. I would also like to have shelter for smokers in bad weather. I would keep the convenient class schedules the same and the faculty who are willing to work around students’ busy schedules.”
Peasants and royalty alike can feel free to enter the conversation by posting your comments to this story.
