Provost Hamilton replied that he had gone through Carver, and he was not pleased. He noted that our youngest building at KSU is 39 years old. These are retention issues, he said. If students are in a classroom with leaks or mold it is difficult to keep them; it is also difficult to recruit with those conditions."
