Derek Hall Quotations

We appreciate out-of-state students and how they bring different perspectives.

We've tried to emphasize that a little bit in some of our communications materials -- apparently not enough. We have plans to get that message out.

We have security in the building. No alarms were sounded. We're trying to figure out what happened there. There was no forced entry, no vandalism.

We were disappointed by the awareness of four-year degrees at the College, ... We have offered Bachelor degrees since 1993, and currently have nearly 50 four-year degree programs. These results will helps us focus our marketing efforts in the future.

Security measures on college campuses are an interesting thing. They are a public space. Tens of thousands of people walk through every day. Thefts do happen.

We're positioned very, very well with all those recommendations.

Historically, in the recruitment area, we have done very little. We are new to the game compared to other institutions.

Our goal is to use mass-marketing opportunities to move it to a personal relationship and to move that to application and attending. It's traditional college enrollment.

We will replace the projectors, we will review our security system in the building, and see what we can do.

We've learned what our weaknesses are, and we're going to fix them. No matter what.

We had a three-year period when we only had three. It was a testing period.

We will be making needed changes to ensure it doesn't happen again.

Five projectors in a year ? that's happened before. Five projectors in one night is substantial.

There's not a timeline, and we're working with the Regents, ... But we do have the consultants coming in early November.

The systems are mounted fairly heavily. Someone would have to put a lot of work into getting them down.

The one difference in our Masters programs, it sound's like they're not going to be as traditional.

The Moore and (Sean) Hannity events were huge and caused a major focus on campus last year. A lot of people expressed their opinions to us, and in return we were able to communicate to a lot of people that we normally would not have.

Athletics has found that when on the road, the other institutions drop 'college' or change it to 'university' on their own.

(As) part of that proposal, they look at the faculty we would need, the student need, the industry need, what jobs are there, how supportive the industry is. They look at labs, at space.

This building will probably extend the center of our campus a little farther north. There was a big shift with the liberal arts building because it's all classrooms and offices, so there's a lot more traffic in that part of our facility, and the library will only add to that traffic pattern.
