[QUOTE="GTpdm, post: 88446, member: 1451"] I don't think administrators are the pointy-headed ones in this thread. Georgia Tech is one of the top public universities in the country, and is [I]world-renowned[/I] for the value of the education it provides and the quality of its graduates. Are you really trying to argue that we should reorganize our academic priorities just to suit the attendance needs of the football program...so that we can be more like [I]world-unnoticed[/I] Georgia Southern? If you feel that confident about giving advice to the Georgia Tech faculty about how to handle our responsibilities (yes, "our"—I am a GT faculty member, as well as a fan), then perhaps you'd also like to go to the CPJ radio show in person and explain to coach why we should run more plays out of the shotgun on 3rd and short—since it would be more exciting and draw greater attendance. If you want an academic program subservient to the football program, why follow Georgia Tech? I hear there's a community college in Athens that does just that. Or you could just follow Georgia Southern, after they pass us by. Whatever. [/QUOTE]
