OT: What would you do for KU?

1) I’d buy an apartment or two here in NYC and lend it out rent free to any (audition required) graduating student receiving a degree in voice for one year so they can take a whack at making the big time without having to worry about living expenses and focus entirely on developing and auditioning.

2) I’d build an ice rink on campus and set up an endowment to create a NCAA hockey program. In the meantime, I’d make sure that the club hockey team had free ice time and had the biggest budget in KU club sports.

Does one of us want to rename Mt. Oread, Mt. KCsince88?

For my alma matter I would do the following.

1) Build underground tunnels connecting the buildings. Minnesota has this on its campus and its really nice for when it is asininely cold, windy etc (I swear no matter what direction you walk on campus you walk into the wind). Underground tunnels, ftw.

2) Find some large wall on campus, the Phog etc and repaint it as a giant Muriel of Chalmers’ game-tying shot. How sick would that be?

3) Donate money to the J-school so a scholarship was named for me. I’d also settle for a plaque. Maybe a statue.

4) Find a way to bring back men’s tennis. The Overland Park area is one of the best high school tennis areas in the entire nation yet the flagship University of the state located 40 minutes away has no team? Dumb.

5) Renovate the towers so our athletes can live in pimp conditions, not….well the Towers.

6) Our Union is cool and its awesome that there is a bowling ally (I took Bowling one Semester. Only A I got that spring…). Lets add some Laser Tag, botchee ball, a BAR (like an epicly awesome bar), pool tables the whole 9 yards.

1.) I would definitely have a crash pad in Lawrence along with a plane so I could bring maximum KU coverage for RCT.

2.) Since I’ve been unsuccessful(so far) at gaining access to programs and players I would hold the athletic department hostage by offering a large sum of money to the football program under the condition that RCT gain unprecedented access to the team, including an official guest author from the senior classes of both the football and basketball teams each year.

3.) Athlete housing would then be my top priority. The crummy apartments on the road across from the football stadium on Mississippi…gone. I’m not talking about the cool old homes, I’m talking the 1980’s apts…gone. In their place, an architectural and stylistically appropriate state of the art housing complex for the football players. T Boone Pickens will croak when he sees what I’ve got planned.

4.) For basketball…screw renovating the towers…I’m tearing that crap down and building new housing for the athletes on that section of campus.

5.) (sarcasm font this as you read it) Wrestling, Tennis, Golf…you name it…if we don’t have it we will because I’m tired of Rock M Nation gloating about all their non revenue sports while we have to settle for orange bowl wins and national championships in sports like basketball and football.

5.) oh and of course something academic for all the reasons that labba mentioned…bla bla bla.

that hired graduates from Kansas schools and employed local people. If the whole state benefits, KU benefits, and if KU grads go to work in state, then the state benefits, etc. etc.

Beyond that, funding for KU athletics and other projects across the board. And probably a big chunk of change for my homies in the Math dept.

complete with sand volleyball tournaments. Of course I can…I won the elebentybilliondollar powerball

I’m not sure I would do this or not, but I could!!

1.) Two full-ride scholarships for one male and female student each from my high school to go to Kansas (I was one of only three kids in my senior class to go there, although my hometown is only 20 minutes away from Lawrence).

2.) An annual program that would allow one KU student in the English Department’s creative writing program to apply for to publish their novel or short story collection.

3.) A statue/plaque near the J-school honoring Christy Bradford.

4.) Complete funding for each Barn Party the newspaper kids have.

5.) Some money for athletics, but I’m not sure how it would go to them. Probably housing related.

I thought I’d have so many more ideas than this…

1. Members of the ultimate frisbee team already have a pact that if anyone ever wins the lottery, we set up scholarships and pimp out the team as much as possible. We’re the school that has made the championships the most often without ever making the finals, and that shit sucks. It’s like we’re Mizzou or something. UNACCEPTABLE.

2. Fund the Olympic Park to completion. Fund the Gridiron Club to completion, and subsidize it to the point where it can be sold out. Replace the main scoreboard with a giant HD screen. Remove the track. This combination should increase revenues enough to hopefully expand non-revenue sports.

3. Fund a real pre-law program that prepares students for law school. Fundamental concepts of law should be taught, but also there should be exposure to the socratic method, mock trials/ ADR, etc.

First, I’d do the responsible thing and set my family and good friends up. Then it’s on like Donkey Kong!
To KU I donate the following:
 1. New housing for the football players. Can’t recruits greatness unless we give them greatness. I’m thinking something similar to this http://www.boston.com/realestate/gallery/09_01_09_BU_dorms_open?pg=2
(I couldn’t figure out how to post the 2 pictures in there I wanted). The 8th one, with the dorm halls overlooking a soccer field – Imagine that at the football stadium.
2. Renovate the Football Stadium
3. Become a "Mizzou Donor" just enough to where I can buy all of their football tickets and then give them away free to any KU fan that wants to go to the game. No more will you have stupid fans throwing beer on you and/or other ku fans!
4. Set up the business school. Summerfield sucks balls!
