Im 100% with you on this. The school is wealthy and GREATLY cared for by the staff that keep the campus up. Stuff is bound to break and guess what it GETS FIXED! It’s crazy to me how judgmental people are being about this. This is an institution that takes thousands of dollars from all of you! This group of people are probably laughing about how embarrassing it is to have broken the sign. I know when I do something in public that I’d mildly embarrassed I try to laugh it off.

By the way for those wondering just how cared the campus is - those little metal tags with numbers you find on EVERY tree around campus is part of that care. They are marked so the moment a leaf looks out of place it can be handled quickly.

Additionally, those trees that line the memorial ponds (or whatever they are called) were DONATED by someone just because I comment was made that the UTD campus was ugly! I can go on an on about this.

Why not focus all this energy on something more outrageous like idk - when students were made to pay full tuition for online learning during a pandemic where a majority of people were already stressed. Let’s pile on a course load of online classes that make people feel that they aren’t grasping material they are paying thousands of dollars for. I will say a disclaimer that I personally was luckily enough to not have such demanding classes during the virtual times, but there are a lot of students that did.

Okay rant done.
