I am glad this issue has been brought to the public's attention. There is a likely conflict of interest here.

It seems to me that if new administration buildings are necessary, and I don't know if that is indeed the case, then the scope of the construction plan should be reevaluated so some of the monies could be redirected to supplement services for students as well.

That would be a compromise to consider.
