He took my name, phone number, and email but couldn't tell me what I could do to help. He also said I was the first person that had called. I think that is pretty sad considering how many people on here complain about not being included and not having any say so in what goes on. One thing that did encourage me is that he did say that if I had any suggestions they would be open to listening and trying new things. I want to see if Oakes is actually trying or just doing this so he can say he is trying. I challenge all of you to do the same, I know we are all very dissapointed in him and the state of our program but if we all volunteer then he can't use the alumni as an excuse anymore. If we all volunteer and he still acts the same way, ingnoring our suggestions and turning us away then that will be one more thing we can use against him.
So get off your soapboxes for a few minutes tomorrow and call.
Bubby, Kyle, Fomby, Travis, Tynes that means you. Everybody else too.
