Three years ago, when I brought my son (then a high school senior) to tour the campus I was stunned (and embarrassed) to see how poorly the facilities at Drew compared to those at most colleges we had toured. The UC had not only gone through no improvements since I'd graduated 25 years before, but it had become just plain seedy. But that's just the beginning. I was also dismayed to see the classrooms in brother's college were also unimproved since 1982 and that the gym (which I still think of as new) showed signs wear and poor maintenance. We never gave Drew a second thought after that. Mr. Kopas really has his work cut out for him. Everything Michael Kopas said in this article was right on the money!
