Jan McDonald Quotations

Last year we had a total of 30 teachers apply for grants and we were able to either partially fund, or completely cover, all but two of them. The total they asked for was $145,218.53, but we only had $55,000 to give. So that leaves a little over $90,000 that we couldn't fund.

I think everything's really in line right now.

Our problem is that we really need to take responsibility for the different things we need to do. We only have until May, so what we're trying to do is organize ourselves.

We are not playing the rest of the season due to an insufficient number of players.

We will build this courtyard on the north side of the gym. People can purchase 8-inch squares to put their names on or dedicate to someone else.

Under the school policy, they would be able to come back to school. They have to reapply. All of them have been encouraged to do that, and it will just be up to them if they would like to do that. I know some have already made plans to come back to summer school to get their credits and all that, so we will be in good shape for next year.

It's unfortunate that it happened. As far as the athletic department, we are going to abide by college policy, and we'll stand by college policy and continue to try to encourage our athletes to make sure they obey rules and regulations of the institution.

Students just need to be reminded over and over and over and again that the college has a no tolerance policy with some things, such as alcohol, illegal visitation, drugs. The rules that the college has when there is absolutely no tolerance, they just need to be reminded that that policy is in place not only on campus but off campus as well.

They can grow on their own: plant the seeds, harvest the produce, learn how to cook with it, take it home, learn about nature, the environment and integrate what they learned in the classroom into the garden.
