eguins Posted May 6, 2014 Report Share Posted May 6, 2014 Wait...do people in Youngstown even have TVs?Youngstown has six local TV stations. How many does Akron have??? Exactly.Btw 21 WFMJ interviewed your student government president and they said they wanted a PhD candidate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good to know our student body actually wants a PhD too, the last two student presidents were definitely the best UA has to offer (and I'm being very serious when I say that). Die-hard Akron, Die-hard Zips.But Define "local TV station"...because Akron has 5 that I know of, probably another one I'm not aware of.

Dave in Green Posted May 7, 2014 Report Share Posted May 7, 2014 Apparently Don Hillenbrand has been taking shots at Jim Tressel for quite awhile. A couple of years ago he even invoked the wrath of the most prolific letter writer in the history of the Akron Beacon Journal, David T. Culp. Check out the third letter to the editor from Feb. 10, 2012. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For a city as large as Akron, and Canton for that matter, it seems unfortunate that you folks are lumped into the Cleveland market.Youngstown has its own NBC, CBS, ABC, FOX, MyTV, and CW. Of course PBS is shared between Youngstown/Can't on 45/49. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly.Btw 21 WFMJ interviewed your student government president and they said they wanted a PhD candidate.As someone from Youngstown who currently goes to Akron, I can say that at least Youngstown has there own TV stations and doesn't have to rely on the Cleveland news which gives them a couple minutes.

eguins Posted May 7, 2014 Report Share Posted May 7, 2014 Per Fox Youngstown, YSU will meet at 8am, Akron at 2pm, on Thursday to discuss and likely make their selections for President. Of course each meeting will be in executive session. Will keep you updated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave in Green Posted May 12, 2014 Report Share Posted May 12, 2014 Right, Texas A&M, Virginia Tech and all the other universities with VPs of Student Success are just waiting for UA to eliminate the position so they can follow suit. Then there are all the other universities who call it VP of Student Affairs who are looking to UA for leadership in eliminating this position. Why on earth should any university have a VP devoted to student interests? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
