[Vision2020] UI going to add an on-campus Pub?

[Donovan Arnold]

Phil and community,

Did you hear about this possibility? 
http://www.argonaut.uidaho.edu/current/news3.html Some people are trying to 
put a government run pub on campus? I do not support it, I think there are 
enough drunks walking around campus without a pub. I also do not think the 
government should get involved in things the private sector is doing just 
fine.  But how do you feel about UI cutting into your business? I would be 
mad if I were you or the owner of a drinking establishment.

I am waiting for the UI to create an oil changing station in which all 
students are required to get their car oil changed there,then they will 
contract the project out to a private business, in Pullman, it will be 
cheaper then any other oil change on the palouse but it will use the wrong 
oil in the winter for 33% of cars. And if you want to get your oil changed 
elsewhere, it will require that you provide proof of a contract that you 
signed agreeing to 35 oil changes a year, because that is how many the UI 
program allows for each year. And nobody will bother to ask why UI got 
involved in the oil business in the first place.

I think UI should concentrate on Education, their area of expertise, and let 
the private businesses concentrate on their business. UI should not be 
involved in things like restaurants, malls, medical coverage, pubs, and all 
of these other things.  The businesses in Moscow are good enough for me, 
good enough for the people of Moscow, and good enough for the students at 
UI.

Take Care,

Donovan J Arnold
