If students could display their work on campus, theywould have to get more involved to do so which is good. Going with Ybor beingthe main art campus, this would attract people's attention elsewhere showing themdifferent campuses, and allowing that talent to be spread out over the campuses.Prof. Harden is in it for the students. Other than on campus, if a student were towish to display their work, they could try some random street show and risk thework being destroyed or stolen, or put it in a gallery which comes with a fee manystudents cannot afford.271: have advisors that know how to direct you in the right direction for correctinformation and program offerings, not give information as fact if not sure,getting enrolment verification sucks if you do it in person and they lose it so youlose your health insurance with your parents and have to get your own at 150monthly and can not afford to go full time cuz working to pay for insurance andrun out of timeStudent Satisfaction Survey 2007 – Q72: Services for Students – Page 436
