John Fry did his damage to the West side as well to the homeowners on Race and Wheatland. It is a shame that in my eyes and thousands of others he will not go down as a compassionate, caring president as the others before him. He did not treat anyone outside F & M with respect if he could not get something in return.
…I would not be surprised if Mr. Fry has an interest in the company that has the contract with F & M for off campus housing. [Editor’s note: We know nothing to so suggest.] Many home owners sold for less due to Mr. S. take over the the neighborhoods.
Unfortunately, the students are paying 4 times what they were paying private ownership and only getting a dorm room in exchange.
Lastly, the Tiger Grant which contained monies for improvements via the County for F & M as well as for High was flatly turned down. Look at the minutes from 2 weeks ago from the Commissioners Meetings. They tried to claim that their requests were for the benefit of the city. DID NOT WORK.
