Fix the old buildings first before adding a new one.

JSU Board of Trustees recently approved the multi million dollar dining hall and a required meal plan for commuter students. Here's the thing:  A tornado came through and destroyed, Mason Hall (music building) which freshman and sophomore music students have never stepped foot in, the nursing building that hasn't even been touched for reconstruction which has led to nursing students taking classes in the library, and Merrill Hall (school of business) has just now began reconstruction after almost two years. There is also the lack of parking that is already a problem at JSU. We understand that there are plans and funds set aside to rebuild the old buildings. But we don’t feel as though they are being made a priority. We are writing this petition to propose the  creation more parking space, and to fix the buildings that have long been destroyed BEFORE the new dining hall. Fix the original stuff FIRST. Before starting a new project. Let the students have a voice in how our money is being spent. Don’t force a meal plan on students.
