> Do we also return the facilities to the state they were in before, particularly the residential programs?
Yes, please. Students learned just fine without all the fancy facilities. Perks are great and all, but I would trade them for a low cost of education in a second.
The university’s would argue that the students voted with their feet, and that those facilities are an arms race that if you lose you lose students.
I do t know that they are disinterested parties in this that can be trusted uncritically but there is a community college near me that has nicer gym facilities for their students than my big 10 Alma matter had for its “student” athletes when I was in school. Something drives that.
