  1. Gail cannot oversee the public school system, what impact can she have in the administration of a community college. What required Assets is she referring to? Please explain Gale.

  2. Along the exterior columns that stretches all around the building up to the second floor
    Can be part of a wall built right around, to provide well needed space for the school, with
    glass windows fairly high up and fresh air vent in the enclosed space. Think new, think big.
