[QUOTE="MacDaddy2, post: 461739, member: 927"] It seems like a good majority of the folks on this site are against watering down the current majors but are not necessarily against the addition of new majors. Leverage my friends is how you create change and to accomplish the change that we need you have to be vocal and public about it. We have an initial news release to a couple of old friends who now have significant presence in the media, Wes Durham and Tom Luginbill. With Wes we can craft and cultivate the message we want to spin and get it out there for consumption before the bias hacks can begin their smear job. The message is simple, Georgia Tech is an institution formed on excellence. We are using the desire for excellence to implore the Board of Regents to allow Georgia Tech to add several non-Stem majors to the choices that Georgia Tech students can elect. People may be aware that over 60% of Georgia Tech graduates move outside of the State of Georgia upon graduation. While some of this may be by choice the reality is there are not enough engineering jobs in the State of Georgia. In other words, your tax dollars are going to educate our young men and woman and when they graduate, they move out of state and the taxes on their starting salary of $xx,xxx are being paid to another state. Critics may say that the non-STEM majors are not part of the mission of Georgia Tech but as we look forward we believe that Georgia Tech should be allowed to extend our curriculum similar to how the University of Georgia was allowed to begin a college of engineering. At Georgia Tech we are not afraid of a little competition and believe that excellence is a key part of our DNA. That excellence will always extend to the s classroom and boardroom but unfortunetely that excellence has evaded us in the field of athletics. We are appealing to you the Board of Regents, comprised of nine UGA graduates and there Georgia Tech graduates to approve this request for non-STEM majors at Georgia Tech. We all know that non-STEM majors are the chosen course of study for XX% of today's student athletes. We therefore urge the Board of Regents to immediately approve our request to expand our academic curriculum to ensure excellence in all endeavors at the premier school of higher learning in the State of Georgia. Should this request be rejected we will take that as a sign that you do not believe in a fair playing field, in the classroom or on the athletic field and leave Georgia Tech no choice but to terminate all athletic competitions with the University of Georgia effective August 1, 2019. u This is a draft but a position we should take, the playing field is unfair and it is damn time we do something about it.
