If I Ran ASU

I think that there are many things ASU does well at. For instance they are great at not excluding lower economic status students so they are affordable and one of the most affordable universities. They are great at innovation and coming up with countless new ideas. We are the first university to offer a school of sustainability. Our foundation is great, we have some of the best faculty and associates out there. (Yes I maybe a little biased) but still all of these statements are true. I think a strength we have is the fact that the university has been around for so long. But something that I also think that is a strength of ASU is sports teams are so recognizable, well known, and likeable, I really think this is a crucial part of the university.  However if I were in charge I think there would be a few things I would change. For instance I know some staff that at one point loved their job but as of recent times it isn’t working out so great for them. They want something new. What I would change about this is I would not only have more position opening and I would hire from within but I would also have something in place for employees of ASU to somehow have a more open door policy with their employees but also have their supervisors check with them. Next I would try and have a more cohesiveness between tendered faculty member or faculty in general and staff members. I don’t like how everyone thinks that they are better than one another. We are all fighting for the same cause. Lastly I would get rid of title 9 which makes any ASU employee a mandatory reporter of sex crimes that happen on campus. Although I think it should be in place for some employees like actual staff and faculty and community assistants, normal student workers should have to report. I am sure there is probably more I would change but this is my three biggest things that came to my head.
